  • A Survey of Securing Networks Using Software Defined Networking
    IEEE Transactions on Reliability, 2015
    Co-Authors: Syed Taha Ali, Adam Radford, Vijay Sivaraman, Sanjay Jha
    Abstract:

    © 2015 IEEE. Software Defined Networking (SDN) is rapidly emerging as a new paradigm for managing and controlling the operation of networks ranging from the data center to the core, enterprise, and home. The logical centralization of network intelligence presents exciting challenges and opportunities to enhance security in such networks, including new ways to prevent, detect, and react to threats, as well as innovative security services and applications that are built upon SDN capabilities. In this paper, we undertake a comprehensive survey of recent works that apply SDN to security, and identify promising future directions that can be addressed by such research.

  • Software Defined Networking opportunities for transport
    IEEE Communications Magazine, 2013
    Co-Authors: Dave Mcdysan
    Abstract:

    The economic landscape where trends of computing and Networking are diverging creates motivation for new engineering paradigms. One emerging paradigm is Software Defined Networking, whose attributes include separation of control from forwarding, enabling joint optimization of computing and Networking deployments, Software-Defined functions at a number of layers, including the transport (i.e., optical and TDM) layer, enabling simpler interworking of different administrative and technology domains, and application-aware transport network resources. This column provides some background on the aspects of SDN related to transport Networking, summarizes major drivers, trends, and issues to be addressed, and concludes by discussing areas of potential research and development for transport-related future SDN work.

  • Software Defined Networking architecture standardization
    Computer Standards & Interfaces, 2017
    Co-Authors: Sibylle Schaller, Dave Hood
    Abstract:

    The Software Defined Networking (SDN) architecture was developed in the Open Networking Foundation (ONF) Architecture working group. It is intended to support standardization related to the broader area of Software Defined Networking and affects not only the understanding and related work within ONF, but across a number of standards and/or open-source development organizations. This article provides a brief outline of the SDN architecture, its relation to Network Function Virtualization (NFV) and areas for further study. Brief outline of the SDN architecture, its relation to NFV and areas for further study.The SDN architecture enables the flexible support of a broad range of use cases and scenarios on a common infrastructure.Major components of SDN are resources and controllers.The SDN architecture defines the essence of an SDN controller as the continuing orchestration of all services against all resources according to a Defined optimization policy. The scope and capabilities of orchestration may provide a wide range of added-value differentiation.Although SDN started as a vehicle to flexibly update packet forwarding algorithms, it has also evolved into a new look at the entire telecommunications spectrum.

  • DSC - Cyber anonymity based on Software-Defined Networking and Onion Routing (SOR)
    2017 IEEE Conference on Dependable and Secure Computing, 2017
    Co-Authors: Abdelhamid Elgzil, Amer Aljaedi, C. Edward Chow, Naif Alamri
    Abstract:

    Cyber anonymity tools have attracted wide attention in resisting network traffic censorship and surveillance, and have played a crucial role for open communications over the Internet. The Onion Routing (Tor) is considered the prevailing technique for circumventing the traffic surveillance and providing cyber anonymity. Tor operates by tunneling a traffic through a series of relays, making such traffic to appear as if it originated from the last relay in the traffic path, rather than from the original user. However, Tor faced some obstructions in carrying out its goal effectively, such as insufficient performance and limited capacity. This paper presents a cyber anonymity technique based on Software-Defined Networking; named SOR, which builds onion-routed tunnels across multiple anonymity service providers. SOR architecture enables any cloud tenants to participate in the anonymity service via Software-Defined Networking. Our proposed architecture leverages the large capacity and robust connectivity of the commercial cloud networks to elevate the performance of the cyber anonymity service.
