Networking is often the hardest hurdle for cybersecurity students because it's so abstract until you see it in action. I found that I couldn't just read about it; I had to see how these elements were tested. I started using https://www.simplytests.com/exams/it-and-cybersecurity to work through specific scenarios involving network defense. The detailed explanations they provide were a game-changer for me, as they break down the packet flow and logic behind the security rules. Keep practicing, and eventually, the technical jargon will turn into a clear mental map.
