| Summary: | The demand of network infrastructure
and services is ever increasing. The network
architecture and related technology must be flexible
enough to accommodate the ever-growing number of
users. Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is an
approach of networking architecture that improvise
conventional network in terms of scalability, security,
and availability. At the same time, SDN is vulnerable
to security threats as well. This paper studies on SDN
architecture, the improvement of SDN from
conventional network, the vulnerability and threats in
SDN, and possible solutions to some security threats
examples. It gives an overview of SDN and security –
the architecture advantages that can be leveraged to
secure network systems, and the security threats that
may occur if improper design and deployment of SDN
take place. |
