Securing communication in multiple Autonomous System domains with Software Defined Networking

In this paper we proposed policy based security architecture for securing the communication in multiple Autonomous System (AS) domains with Software Defined Networks (SDN). We will present a high level overview of the architecture and detail discussion on some of the important components for securing the communication in multiple AS domains. A key component of the security architecture is the specification of security policies that are to be enforced on the SDN communications whether they are intra or inter-domain. We will present example scenarios to demonstrate the operation of the security architecture to enable end-to-end secure communication within a single AS domain and for multiple AS domains. We have justified the model using ONOS controller.
