“…To deal with such problem, [Hurel et al 2014] proposed outsourcing security controls in mobiles to the cloud so that they can work as security services on demand. This may clearly solve the issue of using mobile resources.…”

“…Such a model not only provides organizations of all sizes with access to the technology services that they need, but it can also be a much more cost-effective way of accessing services than performing functions in-house. By outsourcing security protections to a security service provider, users can gain consistent and cost-effective protections regardless of device types, users locations or operating systems [26,27].…”

The dramatic proliferation of cloud computing makes it an attractive target for malicious attacks. Increasing solutions resort to virtual machine introspection (VMI) to deal with security issues in the cloud environment. However, the existing works are not feasible to support tenants to customize individual security services based on their security requirements flexibly. Additionally, adoption of VMI-based security solutions makes tenants at the risk of exposing sensitive information to attackers. To alleviate the security and privacy anxieties of tenants, we present SECLOUD, a framework for monitoring VMs in the cloud for security analysis in this paper. By extending VMI techniques, SECLOUD provides remote tenants or their authorized security service providers with flexible interfaces for monitoring runtime information of guest virtual machines (VMs) in a non-intrusive manner. The proposed framework enhances effectiveness of monitoring by taking advantages of architectural symmetry of cloud environment. Moreover, we harden our framework with a privacy-preserving capacity for tenants. The flexibility and effectiveness of SECLOUD is demonstrated through a prototype implementation based on Xen hypervisor, which results in acceptable performance overhead.

“…Considering the storage and computational limitations of mobile devices for very heavy security applications, [90] proposed outsourcing security to cloud using OpenFlow virtual switch in the device and OpenFlow controller residing in the cloud along with security manager. This method takes away major computational load from the device, employs variety of security services with fast processing.…”

“…This method takes away major computational load from the device, employs variety of security services with fast processing. The communication delay is an important factor affecting performance and so far it is not clear if faster processing overcomes the transmission latency or not [90]. 6) Summary of outstanding security Issues: A comprehensive survey of SDN security solutions have been done in [67] and [72].…”

For many, this is no longer a valid question and the case is considered settled with SDN/NFV (Software Defined Networking/Network Function Virtualization) providing the inevitable innovation enablers towards the realization of a virtualized, flexible, programmable and flexible 5G network. As SDN along with other technology enablers (including NFV) are still in the process of evolution, the first commercial deployment of 5G may take few years. However, some companies are claiming the availability of 5G solutions, but considering the monumental task of softwarization of mobile cellular networks there are genuine concerns that we may only see some point solutions involving SDN technology instead of a fully virtualized SDN-enabled 5G mobile network. In order to determine the technology readiness of SDN solutions in the context of 5G networks, this survey paper attempts to identify all important obstacles in the way, and looks at the state of the art of the relevant research. This survey is different from the previous surveys on SDN-based mobile networks as it focuses on the salient problems and discusses solutions proposed within and outside SDN literature. Our main focus is on fronthaul, backward compatibility, supposedly disruptive nature of SDN deployment, business cases and monetization of SDN related upgrades, latency of general purpose processors (GPP), and additional security vulnerabilities that softwarization brings along to the mobile network. We have also provided a summary of the architectural developments in SDN-based mobile network landscape, including deployment options for SDN within NFV framework, as not all work can be covered under the focused issues. This paper provides a comprehensive survey on the state of the art of SDNbased mobile networks and clearly points out the gaps in the technology.
