“…In [61], authors leverage identity-based encryption, identitybased proxy re-encryption and decentralized identifiers to provide support for content integrity by proposing name-based security for ICN (NBS-ICN). The integrity is preserved by digital signature generated by the owner at the same time content authenticity can be verified.…”

The notion of Information-Centric Networking (ICN) specifies a new communication model that emphasis on the content exchanged rather than the devices connected. ICN architectures like Content Centric Network (CCN) and Named Data Networking (NDN) have been proposed to shift from host-centric based to content-centric based communication along and provide benefits to users in addressing the challenges of traditional IP networks. It differs from host-centric standard Internet Protocol (IP) networking in of naming, routing, forwarding, and caching characteristics. Naming features used in NDN use global unique names provided by content-based security and encryption. It ensures content integrity and authenticity as part of its design. In this paper, we survey on security aspects of NDN/CCN, discussing three integrity attacks such as replay attacks, Man-in-The-Middle (MiTM) attacks, and Content Poisoning Attack (CPA) with countermeasure against them. In addition, we highlight an open challenge and offer future research directions in the context of security.

Information-Centric Networking (ICN) is novel paradigm considered for the future Internet, as well as for emerging architectures, such as the Internet of Things. Despite the significant research efforts that take place all around the world there are still many challenges and open issues related to the applicability of ICN. The papers of this special issue, six in total, identify such challenges, and propose solutions, design guidelines, and new research directions.
