Network Assessment is a term that refers to the assessment of network performance, review of network architecture & security assessment of network devices. The purpose of a network assessment is to identify any weaknesses or vulnerabilities in the network, as well as to evaluate its capacity, security, and overall health.

Using network assessment tools also offers convenience in automating tasks. Network analysis is a method of studying the relationships between entities in a network. It involves analyzing the connections, or links, between the entities, as well as the characteristics of the entities themselves.
