Security framework for home network: authentication, authorization, and security policy

Abstract

As a number of home network services are available and home network is expanding into ubiquitous computing environment, we need to protect home network system from illegal accesses and a variety of threats. Home network is exposed to various cyber attacks of Internet, involves hacking, malicious codes, worms, viruses, DoS attacks, and eavesdropping since it is connected to Internet. So in this paper, we propose a home network security framework for guaranteeing reliability and availability including authentication, authorization and security policy system. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.
