Securing Delay-Tolerant Networks with Bpsec

Securing Delay-Tolerant Networks with BPSec

One-stop reference on how to secure a Delay-Tolerant Network (DTN), written by experienced industry insiders

Securing Delay-Tolerant Networks with BPSec answers the question, "How can delay-tolerant networks be secured when operating in environments that would otherwise break many of the common security approaches used on the terrestrial Internet today?"

The text is composed of three sections: (1) security considerations for delay-tolerant networks, (2) the design, implementation, and customization of the BPSec protocol, and (3) how this protocol can be applied, combined with other security protocols, and deployed in emerging network environments.

The text includes pragmatic considerations for deploying BPSec in both regular and delay-tolerant networks. It also features a tutorial on how to achieve several important security outcomes with a combination of security protocols, BPSec included.

Overall, it covers best practices for common security functions, clearly showing designers how to prevent network architecture from being over-constrained by traditional security approaches.

Written by the lead author and originator of the BPSec protocol specification, Securing Delay-Tolerant Networks (DTNs) with BPSec includes information on:

• The gap between cryptography and network security, how security requirements constrain network architectures, and why we need something different
• DTN stressing conditions, covering intermittent connectivity, congested paths, partitioned topologies, limited link state, and multiple administrative controls
• Securing the terrestrial internet, involving a layered approach to security, the impact of protocol design on security services, and securing the internetworking and transport layers
• A delay-tolerant security architecture, including desirable properties of a DTN secure protocol, fine-grained security services, and protocol augmentation

Securing Delay-Tolerant Networks (DTNs) with BPSec is a one-stop reference on the subject for any professional operationally deploying BP who must use BPSec for its security, including software technical leads, software developers, space flight mission leaders, network operators, and technology and product development leaders in general.

使用BPSec保護延遲容忍網絡

由經驗豐富的業內人士撰寫的一站式參考資料，介紹如何保護延遲容忍網絡（DTN）

使用BPSec保護延遲容忍網絡回答了一個問題：“在環境中運行時，延遲容忍網絡如何保護自己，而這些環境可能會破壞當今在地球互聯網上使用的許多常見安全方法？”

本書分為三個部分：（1）延遲容忍網絡的安全考慮，（2）BPSec協議的設計、實施和自定義，以及（3）如何應用該協議，與其他安全協議結合，並在新興網絡環境中部署。

本書包含在常規網絡和延遲容忍網絡中部署BPSec的實用考慮。它還提供了一個教程，介紹如何通過結合安全協議（包括BPSec）實現幾個重要的安全目標。

總的來說，本書涵蓋了常見安全功能的最佳實踐，清楚地向設計師展示如何避免傳統安全方法過度限制網絡架構。

本書由BPSec協議規範的主要作者和創始人撰寫，使用BPSec保護延遲容忍網絡（DTNs）包含以下信息：

• 密碼學和網絡安全之間的差距，安全要求如何限制網絡架構，以及為什麼我們需要不同的方法
• 延遲容忍網絡的壓力條件，包括間歇性連接、擁擠的路徑、分割的拓撲、有限的鏈路狀態和多個管理控制
• 保護地球互聯網，包括安全的分層方法，協議設計對安全服務的影響，以及保護互聯網和傳輸層
• 延遲容忍安全架構，包括延遲容忍安全協議的理想特性，細粒度的安全服務和協議擴展

使用BPSec保護延遲容忍網絡（DTNs）是該主題的一站式參考資料，適用於任何必須使用BPSec進行安全操作的專業人士，包括軟件技術負責人、軟件開發人員、太空飛行任務負責人、網絡運營商以及技術和產品開發負責人。
