Registration Phase

Standalone Name Resolution (SNR) is an essential component of many Information-Centric Networking (ICN) infrastructures that maps and stores the mappings of IDs and locators. The delivery of data can be realized only when the name resolution process is completed correctly. It also makes the SNR become the key target of network attackers. In this paper, our research focuses on the more covert and complex Content Pollution Attack (CPA). By continuously sending invalid content to the network at a low speed, attackers will consume a lot of the resources and time of the SNR system, resulting in a serious increase in the resolution delay of normal users and further cache pollution in ICN. It is difficult to be quickly detected because the characteristics of attack are inconspicuous. To address the challenge, a register access control scheme for an SNR system based on a malicious user blacklist query is proposed. A neighbor voting algorithm is designed to discover possible attacks in the network quickly and build a blacklist of malicious users reasonably. Users on the blacklist will be restricted from accessing the ICN network during the registration phase with the resolution system. Incentives and punishments for network users are introduced to automate responses about the potential malicious behavior reports. Our scheme is more efficient as users do not have to wait for an additional system component to perform operations. In addition, our algorithm can better solve the collusion problem in the voting process when compared with the others. We experimentally evaluate our protocol to demonstrate that the probability of successful collusion attack can be reduced to less than 0.1 when the attacker ratio is 0.5.

Content Centric Network

Information-centric networking is the developing model envisioned by an increasing body of the data communication research community, which shifts the current network paradigm from host centric to data centric, well-known to information-centric networking (ICN). Further, the ICN adopts different types of architectures to extend the growth of the Internet infrastructure, e.g., name-based routing and in-network caching. As a result, the data can be easily routed and accessed within the network. However, when the producer generates contents for authentic consumers, then it is necessary for him/her to have a technique for content confidentiality, privacy, and access control. To provide the previously mentioned services, this paper presents a certificateless proxy reencryption scheme (CPRES) based on the hyperelliptic curve for access control in the content-centric network (CCN). Using certificateless PRE, the power of the key generation center (KGC) is limited to only the generation of partial keys to secure the access to the content. With the help of these partial keys, the producer further calculates keys for encryption and reencryption process. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme provides secure access to content during end-to-end communication. Moreover, the proposed CPRES scheme outperforms in terms of low computational energy and efficient utilization of communication bandwidth.

The world is growing very rapidly concerning technology. In the next-generation Internet, the existing architecture requires to be upgraded from Host-Centric Networking paradigm to Information-centric networking architecture. The unique aspect of information-centric networking is in-network cashing. Due to the system augmentation and In-network cashing technique, this novel system needs extremely high content security to ensure system integrity and maintenance. 5G network may be supported by the Information-Centric Network due to its high data transmission rate. In order to handle the serious security issues such as attack on confidentiality, authentication and integrity of the content, a Digital Signature based Access Control Mechanism in Information-Centric Network (DSAC) scheme is proposed to enhance security of ICN. Briefly, this new scheme uses Digital Signature, hash function, Trusted Third Party (TTP) and Proxy TTP. The client request for content, after receiving a request, the content provider generates and encrypts content with the digital signature and random value ‘k’ hash function and send it to TTP. After the signing process, the TTP sends the encryption hash key to Proxy TTP. In this proposed scheme authentication, confidentiality, the integrity aspects of the content security are improved.
