Securing Software Defined Network Architectures
The University of Newcastle
Software Defined Networking (SDN) is disruptive networking technology which adopts a centralized framework to facilitate fine-grained network management.
Although SDN has several benefits, security in SDN is still in its infancy in the Asia Pacific region. This project explored the design and development of techniques for detecting attacks on SDN switches.
The project implemented the proposed techniques and validate against different attacks on the switches. In particular, it developed a Switch Security Application (SSA) for SDN Controller for detecting attacks on the switches.
Three technical reports were produced by the project as well as the overall project technical report.
