This algorithm is based on the improved authentication tests model, which enhances the original model by formalizing the message reply attack. With exact causal dependency relations between messages in this model, the protocol-proving algorithm can avoid the state explosion caused by asynchronous. In order to get the straight proof of security protocols, three authentication theorems are exploited for evaluating the agreement and distinction properties. When the algorithm terminates, it outputs either the proof results or the potential flaws of the security protocol. The experiment shows that the protocol-proving algorithm can detect the type flaw attack on Neuman-Stubblebine protocol, and prove the correctness of NSL protocol by exploring only 10 states.展开更多

Security metrics help to make functional and business decisions for improving the performance and cost of the security controls. However, defining enterprise-level security metrics has already been listed as one of the hard problems in the Info Sec Research Council's hard problems list. Almost all the efforts in defining absolute security metrics for the enterprise security have not been proved fruitful. At the same time, with the maturity of the security industry, there has been a continuous emphasis from the regulatory bodies on establishing measurable security metrics. This paper addresses this need and proposes a relative security metric model that derives three quantitative security metrics named Attack Resiliency Measure(ARM), Performance Improvement Factor(PIF), and Cost/Benefit Measure(CBM) for measuring the performance of the security controls. For the effectiveness evaluation of the proposed security metrics, we took the secure virtual machine(VM) migration protocol as the target of assessment. The virtual-ization technologies are rapidly changing the landscape of the computing world. Devising security metrics for virtualized environment is even more challenging. As secure virtual machine migration is an evolving area and no standard protocol is available specifically for secure VM migration. This paper took the secure virtual machine migration protocol as the target of assessment and applied the proposed relative security metric model for measuring the Attack Resiliency Measure, Performance Improvement Factor, and Cost/Benefit Measure of the secure VM migration protocol.展开更多
