Abstract
In the current era, anyone can freely access the Internet thanks to the development of information and communication technology. The cloud is attracting attention due to its ability to meet continuous user demands for resources. Additionally, Cloud is effective for systems with large data flow such as the Internet of Things (IoT) systems and Smart Cities. Nonetheless, the use of traditional networking technology in the cloud causes network traffic overload and network security problems. Therefore, the cloud requires efficient networking technology to solve the existing challenges. In this paper, we propose one-time password-based software-defined cloud architecture for secure dynamic routing to mitigating the above-mention issues. The proposed cloud architecture provides a secure data path through dynamic routing using One-Time Internet Protocol (OTIP) algorithm between each layer. On the network side, we use software-defined technology to provide efficient network management and data security. We introduce a software-defined cloud architecture that applies OTIP algorithms for secure dynamic routing. We conduct a comparative analysis between general IP communication and proposed OTIP communication architecture. It evaluates the performance of OTIP algorithms. Finally, we examine the proposed software-defined cloud architecture, including how to apply OTIP in secure dynamic routing according to the results of the comparative analysis.
Highlights
With the rapid development of information and communication technology and the activation of the Internet of Everything (IoE), anyone can access the Internet anytime, anywhere
IoE is rapidly developing with the evolution of the technological environment, personal internet storage, and machine learning based on big data [1,2]
We introduce the proposed software-defined cloud architecture and the One-Time Internet Protocol (OTIP) algorithm for secure dynamic routing and present the results of a comparative analysis with existing IP communication through the OTIP algorithm
Summary
With the rapid development of information and communication technology and the activation of the Internet of Everything (IoE), anyone can access the Internet anytime, anywhere. According to Checkpoint’s 2020 Report on Cybersecurity, over 90% of enterprises were using certain types of cloud services as of 2019, and most of them have been attacked by cloud servers [12] This is mainly due to cloud misconfiguration and management errors as well as Advanced and Persistent Threats (APTs) and network attacks. We propose an OTP-based software-defined cloud architecture for dynamic routing For this purpose, we use a Software-Defined Perimeter (SDP) and a Software-Defined Network (SDN) to provide software-defined technological services. The OTP-based Internet Protocol (OTIP) algorithm is used for the control path between the controller layer, the SDN layer, and the data path between the user and the SDN layer This algorithm provides safety against network sniffing, man-in-the-middle attacks, and advanced persistent threat attacks. We discuss how software-defined cloud architectures with OTIP technology can be used in large-scale clouds that require secure routing
