In this paper, we propose security management architecture that manages efficiently security systems that are produced by different companies and programmable middleware that can reduce the load of management traffic. The proposed architecture applies programmable networks technology to policy based network management (PBNM). The proposed architecture manages and cooperates various security systems using security policy. Also, the programmable middleware provides convenience of management and reduces the overhead of a policy server by translating security policy into execution command. In addition, using programmable middleware, an administrator can manage various security systems that are produced by different companies. We showed that the programmable middleware could reduce the load of management traffic by comparing processing time for enforcing and transferring of policies/messages between the proposed architecture and PBNM architecture.

In the current Internet system, there are many problems using anonymity of the network communication such as personal information leaks and crimes using the Internet system. This is why TCP/IP protocol used in Internet system does not have the user identification information on the communication data, and it is difficult to supervise the user performing the above acts immediately. As a study for solving the above problem, there is the study of Policy Based Network Management (PBNM). This is the scheme for managing a whole Local Area Network (LAN) through communication control for every user. In this PBNM, two types of schemes exist. As one scheme, we have studied theoretically about the Destination Addressing Control System (DACS) Scheme with affinity with existing internet. By applying this DACS Scheme to Internet system management, we will realize the policy-based Internet system management. In this paper, basic system design for PBNM scheme for multi-domain management utilizing data science and AI is proposed.

Policy-Based Network Management (PBNM) architecture is to meet various needs of network users and to provide effective management facilities in distributed and large scale networks to network managers. In PBNM, network managers perform network management operations by stipulating a set of rules rather than control each network component. On the other hand, providing security services such as authentication, privacy of messages as well as a new flexible and extensible administration framework, SNMPv3 enables network managers to monitor and control the operation of network components more secure way than ever before. Despite of its enhanced security services, SNMPv3 has difficulties in managing distributed, large-scaled network because it does not provide centralized security management facilities. In this paper, we propose a new security model called Role-based Security Management model (RSM) with security management policy to support scalable and centralized security management for SNMP-based networks. Also, the structure and the operation of the security system as well as the efficiency analysis of RSM in terms of security management are also described.

As network systems are developed rapidly and network architectures are more complex than before, it needs to use PBNM(Policy-Based Network Management) in network system. Generally, architecture of the PBNM consists of two hierarchical layers: management layer and enforcement layer. A security policy server in the management layer should be able to generate new policy, delete, update the existing policy and decide the policy when security policy is requested. And the security policy server should be able to analyze and manage the alert messages received from Policy enforcement system in the enforcement layer for the available information. In this paper, we propose an alert analyzer using data mining. First, in the framework of the policy-based network security management, we design and implement an alert analyzes that analyzes alert data stored in DBMS. The alert analyzer is a helpful system to manage the fault users or hosts. Second, we implement a data mining system for analyzing alert data. The implemented mining system can support alert analyzer and the high level analyzer efficiently for the security policy management. Finally, the proposed system is evaluated with performance parameter, and is able to find out new alert sequences and similar alert patterns.

Recently, a number of network systems are developed rapidly and network architectures are more complex than before, and a policy-based network management should be used in network system. Especially, a new paradigm that policy-based network management can be applied for the network security is raised. A security policy server in the management layer can generate new policy, delete. update the existing policy and decide the policy when security policy is requested. The security server needs to analyze and manage the alert message received from server Policy enforcement system in the enforcement layer for the available information. In this paper, we implement an alert analyzer that analyze the stored alert data for making of security policy efficiently in framework of the policy-based network security management. We also propose a data mining system for the analysis of alert data The implemented mining system supports alert analyzer and the high level analyzer efficiently for the security.

This paper proposes the architecture and the methods of security network management for auto-configuration of security systems by extending the existing policy-based network management architecture. The architecture and the methods proposed in this paper enable a security management sewer to automatically decide the best-suited security policy to apply to a security system and the most effective and efficient security system to perform security policy rule, based on the role and capability information of security systems and the role and time information of security policy. For integrated control of network system and security system, this paper also proposes SNMP protocol based security network topology map generator. To show the excellence of the proposed architecture and methods, we simulate and evaluate the automatic response against attacks.

XML is being used to describe components and applications in a vendor and language neutral. Therefore it already has a role in distributed system. XML is also being used as a data interchange format between components and applications in loosely coupled large-scale application. Until now, policy is described for specific applications and devices. Its use has been very limited. In current network management system, we can only invoke predefined operations and actions using policy-based network management. The main motivation for the recent interests in policy-based networks is to support dynamic adaptability of behavior by changing policy without recoding or stopping system. For these reasons we present the use of the XML for describing the policy and PIB(Policy Information Base) in COPS-PR. It improves flexibility and interoperability among heterogeneous network systems. It also can add new functionality into network components. In this paper, we propose a dynamically extensible network management architecture using XML-based PIB.

This paper proposes a policy-based quality of service (QoS) management framework for adaptive routing decisions. We present an approach considering interior gateway protocol (IGP) for path discovery mechanisms and QoS-aware policies for configuring the network elements. The integration of the aforementioned modules into this policy-based network management (PBNM) system is demonstrated by conducting experiments in a real environment, the hellenic public administration network SYZEFXIS. These experiments combine different traffic conditioning mechanisms through event detectors, consider IP service level agreement mechanisms that interoperate with the PBNM system and analyze the enforcement of IGP and QoS policies. Finally, validation and measurement tools are used to prove the efficiency of this framework. It is shown that this architecture offers significantly increased performance and learning capabilities, while the PBNM system achieves adaptive QoS routing through automated configuration considering the avoidance of suboptimal routing issues or under-performance conditions of the network entities.

In this paper, we present the functional architecture for the traffic engineering capable policy based network management system. In this paper, we also examine the traditional approach to network management, contrast it with the policy based approach. The architecture includes the traffic engineering facilities, especially MPLS traffic engineering functions, to provide maximum network resource utilization. The policy server should communicate with the traffic engineering server and network manager to enforce the network policy efficiently. The interfaces and interworking methods are described in this paper.
