Security for SDN (Software Defined Networks) SDN (Software Defined Networks) – SDN is a network architecture which deals with network dynamics through software enabled control. Security for SDN has become an important concern. We discuss about security threats and their effects with this we also discuss about SDN Security Controls. ·         Security Threats : Denial of service(Dos), Information Disclosure, Spoofing, Tampering, Repudiation, Elevation of Privilege. ·         Security Controls : Access Control, firewalls, IDS(Intrusion detection system), IPS(Intrusion prevention system), policy management and auditing. STRIDE(Spoofing, Tampering, Repudiation, Information Disclosure, Denial of service, Elevation of Privilege ) is a threat classification model developed by Microsoft for thinking about computer security threats. SDN security threats and countermeasures: We are going to use STRID...
