UniversityAbstract:We present the first Internet architecture designed to provide
routecontrol, failure isolation, and explicit trust information forend-to-end
communications. SCION separates ASes into groups ofindependent routing sub-planes,
called trust domains, which theninterconnect to form complete routes. Trust domains
provide naturalisolation of routing failures and human misconfiguration,
giveendpoints strong control for both inbound and outbound traffic,provide meaningful
and enforceable trust, and enable scalable routingupdates with high path freshness.
As a result, our architectureprovides strong resilience and security properties as an
intrinsicconsequence of good design principles, avoiding piecemeal add-onprotocols as
security patches. Meanwhile, SCION only assumes that afew top-tier ISPs in the trust
domain are trusted for providingreliable end-to-end communications, thus achieving a
small TrustedComputing Base. Both our security analysis and evaluation resultsshow
that SCION naturally prevents numerous attacks and provides ahigh level of
resilience, scalability, control, and isolation.Bio:Adrian Perrig is a Professor in
Electrical and Computer Engineering,Engineering and Public Policy, and Computer
Science at Carnegie MellonUniversity. Adrian serves as the technical director for
CarnegieMellon''s Cybersecurity Laboratory (CyLab). He earned his Ph.D. degreein
Computer Science from Carnegie Mellon University, and spent threeyears during his
Ph.D. degree at the University of California atBerkeley. He received his B.Sc. degree
in Computer Engineering fromthe Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne
(EPFL). Adrian''sresearch revolves around building secure systems and includes
networksecurity, trustworthy computing and security for social networks.
Morespecifically, he is interested in trust establishment, trustworthycode execution
in the presence of malware, and how to design securenext-generation networks. More
