Trusted Computing Architecture for Secure Network Functions

Currently, Network Function Virtualization (NFV) has become a basic technology to support the development of the 5G communication network. Meanwhile, the security protection technology of network function software has also become an important part of solving the 5G security problems. Therefore, we established a simulation network environment for network slicing by using open source software. Then, we designed a trusted computing architecture for security protection technology of network function in this simulation environment. Then, through experiments, we tested the static integrity security protection of network functions and proved that this architecture can resist the tampering attack. Finally, the performance test shows the usability of our trusted computing architecture.
