  1. Session 4 (A)Secure, Dependable and Trusted Infrastructures: State-of-the-art and IST Call 1 ObjectivesSkopje, FYROM, 15 December 2006

  2. Network and Information Security An Introduction • Network and Information Security • “The ability of a network or an information system to resist, at a given level of confidence, accidental events or malicious actions that compromise the availability, authenticity, integrity and confidentiality of stored and transmitted data and the related services offered by or accessible via these networks and systems” SAFETY = SECURITY + PRIVACY Source: communication form the Commission “Network and Information Society: Proposal for a European Policy Approach”, COM (2001) 298 final

  3. Network and Information Security Operative Context • System landscape has changed and keeps changing dramatically “The Walled Fortress” “The Open Metropolis” • Closed doors, physical isolation • Less organised attacks • Security as protection • Defending data and systems • Open, unbounded, interconnected • User-targeted focussed attacks • Financial gain • Trust as an enabler Source: Jacques Bus, “Security Research in the EU FP for RTD”, available at http://wwwes.cs.utwente.nl/safe-nl/meetings/24-6-2005/jacques.pdf

  4. The “New Metropolis” LandscapeKey Features • Industry: demand for secure SW is much higher than available security expertise • Auditors and lawyers: who is accountable and liable for what? • Users: security segmentation and market definition are increasingly blurring; “service infrastructure” covers network infrastructure, perimeter, desktop, server and applicationsecurity • Society: trust becomes a key enabler for service provision and use And last but not least • RTD: new complex scenarios introduce security issues not addressed by conventional engineering processes

  5. The “New Metropolis” LandscapeSecurityTechnology Overview • Basic security building blocks are available and ready to use • Today’s applications can in general be run securely but • Managing the complexity is the challenge • Security is subject to restrictions (reduced flexibility and openness) • Vulnerable layers: L2 (networks), L7 (internet) • (Increasingly) security as service • Part of an overall SOA architecture • Focus on the user security needs

  6. The “New Metropolis” LandscapeCommon Types of New Threats 2nd Q 2006 Source: J. Franco, Panda Software, “Internet Threats: Perception vs. Reality”

  7. Economic Significance ofTypical Security Threats Source: communication form the Commission “Network and Information Society: Proposal for a European Policy Approach”, COM (2001) 298 final

  8. Attempts at SolutionsKey Action Lines • Information sharing and policy framework • Adoption of consistent laws to enable enforcement world-wide • Intelligence: proper threat assessment • User-focussed: technology and education to address the weak link • Education: promote user awareness • RTD: develop broad range of technology solutions

  9. Attempts at SolutionsFocus of Current Security Projects and Initiatives1/2 • Holistic system security • Interdependency and complexity theory • System reliability and availability theory • Cascading theory • Scenario analysis, simulation and modelling, etc • Risk management & vulnerability analysis • Prevention and detection • Information sharing systems • Early warning systems • Intrusion / malware detection and response • Incident response & recovery Source: CI2RCO D6, “Report on the Analysis and Evaluation of CIIP R&D programmes.

  18. What Lies Ahead?The Vision • Ubiquitous systems • Heterogeneity, Interoperability, Scalability, Evolvability, Complexity • New security, dependability and privacy challenges • Applications utilising shared and co-owned services out of different domains of control that require to obey separate security policies and ask for diverse security and dependability qualities

  19. What Lies Ahead?Core Concepts • From dependability • A system property denoting the trustworthiness of a system that allows reliance to be justifiably placed on the service it delivers • Resilience • Embraces dependability and survivability as it captures the property and capacity of a system to autonomously tackle, adapt, respond, recover, self-heal, reconfigure, etc, and be flexible enough to accommodate & tolerate faults / upsets / disruptions and attacks • Plasticity • Embraces the properties and capabilities that would make digital environments and systems to be able to dynamically adapt and evolve securing the seamless control and use of data, information, knowledge, etc
