Cisco defines network security as "any activity designed to protect the usability and integrity of your network and data" (Cisco, 2016). In protecting the data that includes keep it private and confidential. The information security officer is in charge of implementing these things.

He should know his job and what is required and if he does not complete it properly then he should be led to see his errors. James tells us "if anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn't do it, it is sin for them" (4:17, NIV), and thus the information security officer needs to be wary and alert to the system.

A properly implemented network security plan should be like a strong tower for the data given to the network. So where data and information is stored and transfered for usage, it can remain safe and secure for those who are supposed to use it and protected against those that would be looking to act maliciously against the data.

Two verses come to mind in reference to the data being protected, the first is in Proverbs, "the name of the Lord is a fortified tower; the righteous run to it and are safe" (18:10, NIV), and the second is in Psalm, "for you are my safe refuge, a fortress where my enemies cannot reach me" (61:3, NLT).

We can continue this allusion of treating our networks like cities and our data and users like its inhabitants and educate our users to be more vigilant in their use of the network to help reinforce the privacy, security and confidentiality of the data and we can bring Psalm 122:7 as well, "may there be peace within your walls and security within your citadels" (NIV).

Of course it would be so much easier to secure data if more people were like Jesus and rather then having malicious intent or sinful desires, people could treat others as they would themselves like it is said in Matthew, "do to others whatever you would like them to do to you.

This is the essence of all that is taught in the law and the prophets" (7:12, NLT).
