New secure routing method & applications facing MitM attacks

Abstract

In real life we have one entry for multiple tasks, like police officer job that can vary from regulating traffic to other duties like keeping the peace, law enforcement, protection of people and property, etc.By applying the same concept on routers, we developed in this paper -using Graph Theory-a new routing method that adds the task of security while dispatching messages, so as to get around attacks based on sniffing like MitM.To validate the proposal, simulation was made to confirm that this new way of processing has no major impact on router performances while calculating routes and dispatching messages.

Countering MitM Attacks Using Evolved PathFinder Algorithm

“…It's built of 16 nodes with 4 Core routers (R1 to R4) and 12 Edge routers (R5 to R16). Hence, it's impossible to execute pathfinder on it due to the limitation presented by (Chliah, Orhanou, & Hajji, 2014.…”

“…We'll start by introducing the work done around pathfinder (Chliah, Orhanou, & Hajji, 2014), Secure Load Sharing algorithms , and also the newest release version (Chliah, Chetioui, Orhanou, & ELHajji, 2016) that provides possibility to handle network with hundreds of nodes. These algorithms combined with existing routing protocols, allow routers to ensure that two successive segments from the same packet will go through different paths.…”
