Improved Security Protocols for SCTP

With fast and prosperous development in communication technology, desktop or
mobile devices may be equipped with wired and wireless network interfaces. Hence,
users need a multihoming technique to help them making use of the network in-
terfaces effectively. The Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is a new
transport protocol approved by the SIGTRAN Working Group of IETF (Internet
Engineering Task Force) as RFC 2960 in October 2000 where it includes this useful
characteristic. However, this feature may lead to some secure pitfalls. In this thesis,
we come up with some approaches to improve SCTP against some existing tough
problems raised from multihoming and provide more sufficient protection methods
based on cryptography. Finally, a comparison of the existing security solutions is
also given to demonstrate our contributions.
