Athena: A Configurable Validation Framework For NDN Applications
نویسنده
چکیده
In Named Data Networking (NDN), data is bound with its name through its producer’s public key signature. Secure communication in NDN requires every piece of data to be authenticated. Leaving the data authentication to application developers is error-prone. It is more reasonable to ask application developer to select a pre-defined trust model, and have a security library to automatically set up all the data authentication procedures. In this paper, we proposed Athena, a configurable validation framework to support automated data authentication. We also defined a policy language Guardian to help security experts to specify a variety of trust model in a convenient way.

An Endorsement-based Key Management System for Decentralized NDN Chat Application
In Named Data Networking (NDN), all data packets are authenticated with digital signatures. Thus a trustworthy key management system is required in all NDN applications for data validation. In this paper, we propose an endorsementbased key management system, which is inspired by the concept of Web-of-Trust, to secure ChronoChat, a serverless group chat application over NDN. With the endorsement...
متن کاملSchematizing and Automating Trust in Named Data Networking
Securing communication in networking applications involves many complex tasks that can be daunting even for security experts. The Named Data Networking (NDN) architecture builds data authentication into the narrow waist layer by requiring all applications to sign and authenticate every network-level data packet. To make this authentication usable, the decision about which keys can sign which da...

Recent literature suggests that the Internet of Things (IoT) scales much better in an Information-Centric Networking (ICN) model instead of the current host-centric Internet Protocol (IP) model. In particular, the Named Data Networking (NDN) project (one of the ICN architecture flavors) offers features exploitable by IoT applications, such as stateful forwarding, innetwork caching, and built-in...
