Covert Channel Elimination Protocols

چکیده
With the increasing growth of electronic communications, it is becoming important to provide a mechanism for enforcing various security policies on network communications. This paper discusses our implementation of several previously proposed protocols that enforce the Bell LaPadula security model. We also introduce a new protocol called \Quantized Pump" that ooers several advantages, and present experimental results to support our claims.

Detection And Elimination Of Covert Communication In Transport And Internet Layer – A Survey
Covert channels use stealth communications to compromise the security policies of systems. They constitute an important security threat since they can be used to exfiltrate confidential data from networks. TCP/IP protocols are used everyday and are subject to covert channels problems. Covert channels are used for the secret transfer of information. Encryption only protects communication from be...

Covert channels are used for the secret transfer of information. Encryption only protects communication from being decoded by unauthorised parties, whereas covert channels aim to hide the very existence of the communication. Initially, covert channels were identified as a security threat on monolithic systems i.e. mainframes. More recently focus has shifted towards covert channels in computer n...
متن کاملLow-Attention Forwarding for Mobile Network Covert Channels
In a real-world network, different hosts involved in covert channel communication run different covert channel software as well as different versions of such software, i.e. these systems use different network protocols for a covert channel. A program that implements a network covert channel for mobile usage thus must be capable of utilizing multiple network protocols to deal with a number of di...
متن کاملSystematic Engineering of Control Protocols for Covert Channels
Within the last years, new techniques for network covert channels arose, such as covert channel overlay networking, protocol switching covert channels, and adaptive covert channels. These techniques have in common that they rely on covert channel-internal control protocols (so called micro protocols) placed within the hidden bits of a covert channel’s payload. An adaptable approach for the engi...
