Overview of Network Security Assessment Title - Security Issues
Purpose of the assessment - The purpose of this assignment is to develop skills to independently think of innovation. In this assignment students will first learn how to develop knowledge based on current state of the art of an emerging knowledge domain. Then they will learn how to identify plausible security issues in this emerging technology and finally learn the skill of adding knowledge to existing domain by theoretically developing the corresponding protection mechanism for a particular issue.
Assignment Description -
The purpose of this assignment is to develop skills to independently think of innovation. In this assignment students will first learn how to develop knowledge based on current state of the art of an emerging knowledge domain. Then they will learn how to identify plausible security issues in this emerging technology and finally learn the skill of adding knowledge to existing domain by theoretically developing the corresponding protection mechanism for a particular issue.
Software Defined Networking (SDN) is a rising concept in computer networking. It is possible to centralize software logically in order to control the behaviour of the network. In contrast to conventional network, in SDN, a network's control logic is separated from the underlying physical routers and switches. This phenomenon allows network operators to write high-level control programs to specifying the behaviour of the whole network.
This assignment includes four parts
1. Literature review on Software Defined Networking (SDN).
2. Identify three current or future security issues in SDN.
3. Propose a possible solution for one of the threats identified in section (2).
4. Create a 7-10 minutes presentation and present your work in front of big audiences.
1. Literature review on Software Defined Networking (SDN)
You need to write 800 word literature on SDN. Your literature should be supported by at least three (3) academic (Journal/Conference) papers chosen from the current state of the art.
2. Identify three current or future security issues in SDN
In this section you will identify three security issues. These issues can be taken from current state of the art or could be evolved from your own independent innovative thinking. This section again must have to be supported by at least two (2) references.
3. Propose a possible solution for one of the threats identified in section(2). In this part you need to add knowledge to the existing knowledge domain of SDN. You need to choose one of the issues identified in previous section and propose a possible solution to this particular security issue.
4. Create a 7-10 minutes presentation and present your work in front of big audiences. You have to create a 7-10 minutes presentation to present your work in front of large audience.
