  3. Wireless Security • Why is wireless security any different from wired security? • Resource constraints. • Value of the network link. • Increased risk to confidentiality.

  4. Wireless Security Efforts • Layer 1 (Physical) • Spread spectrum • Layer 2 (Link) • 802.11x – 802.11(b) WEP, 802.11(g) • GPRS • CDMA 2000

  5. Network Layer Wireless Security • Advantages • Independent of underlying link layer. • Overcomes the challenges addressed by layer 2 mechanisms for most cases. • Leverages extensive experience, s/w, and h/w support from Ipsec for VPNs. • Disadvantage • Need set up protocols.

  6. Basic Challenge Internet LAN C NAS S

  7. L3A Architecture L3A SAM SIKE SPD SAD Ipsec IP

  8. SIKE w/ delegation SIKE w/ delegation SIKE SIKE Protocol Messages and Tunnels C NAS S

  9. Research Directions • Build on sectrace experience. • Formal simulation of SIKE and L3A in Maude in parallel with design. • Implementation on BSD with X.509 certs. • Develop requirements for accounting and prove correctness.

  10. DoS Models and Protection Measures • Shared Channel Model • Selective Verification • Bin Verification • Current Directions

  11. Shared Channel Model • Adversary can replay and insert packets. • Legitimate sender sends packets with a maximum and minimum bandwidth. • Legitimate sender experiences loss, but not deliberate modification.

  12. Shared Channel Model Example Sender Packet Dropped Sender Packet Attacker Packet S1 A1 S2 S3 S4 A2 A3 S5 A4 A5 • Model is a four-tuple (W0, W1, A, p). • W0, W1 min and max sender b/w • A attacker max b/w • p loss rate of sender

  13. Signature Flooding • Attack factor R = A / W1. Proportionate attack R = 1. Disproportionate attack R > 1. • Stock PC can handle about 8000 PKC/sec. • 10Mbps link sends about 900 pkt/sec, 100Mbps link sends about 9000 pkt/sec. • Budget: no more that 5% of processor on PKCs.

  14. Selective Sequential Verification • Adversary can devote his entire channel to fake signature packets. • Countermeasure: • Valid sender sends multiple copies of the signature packet. • Receiver checks each incoming signature packet with some probability (say, 25% or 1%).

  15. A loads this channel with bad packets S requires low b/w channel with high processing cost at R Attack Profile A R S

  16. Selective Verification A R S

  17. A gets reduced channel S adds redundancy Selective Verification R makes channels lossy A R Tradeoff: bandwidth vs. processing S
