  1. 20th APAN Network Research Workshop Securing Binding Updates between Mobile Node and Correspondent Node in Mobile IPv6 Environment Rahmat Budiarto NAv6, USM

  2. Introduction • What is IPv6? IPv6 is the next generation IP Address. IPv6 = 2001:0468:0C80:1341:0280:1CFF:FE15:5820 Huge Number of addresses 2128 = 340 Undecillion Addresses Built-in Mobility Support (Main Feature) • Why do we need IPv6? Limited addressing space in IPv4 Growing Internet Community • More laptops, Broadband service, Hotspots… Growing Mobile Technology • 3G Network, Nokia and Mobile phone service providers • What is Mobile IPv6?

  3. Mobile IPv6 Terms Used • Mobile Node -a node which travels from one to another network • Home Agent - Router in the Home network • Correspondent Node - Node which Mn communicating with • Home-of Address – Mn’s IP Address in Home Network • Care-of Address - Mn’s IP Address in Foreign Network • Binding Update - What is binding Update?

  4. Binding Update Binding update is the act of Mn, To update its new Care of Address. (to HA & Cn) • Between Mobile Node and Home Agent • (Current Protocol - IPSec) • Between Mobile Node and Correspondent Node • (Current Protocol - Return Routability)

  5. Scope and Background of the Paper • This paper is about Mobile IPv6 and Binding Update. (only Mn and Cn) Related Papers • What others has done about Binding Update? • Is it a current issue? • Is it an interesting topic?

  6. Literature Review / Related Work • Securing return Routability protocol against Active Attack • Uses Modified RR and Digital Signature • Also use Public Key Cryptography for strong security • Conclusion : Public Key is very huge, not practical to implement • Mobile IPv6 route Optimization Security Design • Has made small enhancement to RR • Introduce time stamp for kbm (eliminate time shifting attack) • Conclusion : Introduce Route Optimization (Kbm expiration)

  7. Literature Review / Related Work (continue) • Early Binding Updates for Mobile IPv6 • Introduces two Early Binding messages • Reduces the overall network latency • Conclusion : Provides a good performance Result • Using IPSec between Mobile and correspondent IPv6 Nodes • New approach introduced • Mostly based on assumption and needs more Security Association • Assumption made as manual selection and peer to peer based • Conclusion : Ambitious, need more enabled features. (future) • Dynamic Diffie-Hellman based key distribution for Mobile IPv6 • Uses Diffie-Hellman key exchange method • Four message exchange, possible man-in-the middle attack • Conclusion : Lacks of Authentication, might need PKI or AAA implementation

  8. Methodology • Secret Key Binding Technique • New Approach to Secure Binding Update Between Mn and Cn to replace Return Routability • Pre-Binding Secret Key Exchange Method • Key Exchange Process in Home Network • Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange • Two Message Exchange • Secret Key Encryption Method • Process takes place in Foreign Network • 2 Binding test message exchange • 2 Binding update message exchange

  9. Pre-Binding Secret Key Exchange Method

  10. Secret Key Encryption Method

  11. Mobile Node Secret Key Binding Technique Scenario Shown as per Flow Diagram Home Network FF:01::01 Home-Of Address FF:08::04 Home Agent Correspondent Node Foreign Network 2 FF:84::05 Care-Of Address Foreign Network 1

  12. Implementation / Result • Simulation presented using Network Simulator 2 (NS2) • C++ (System Language) - Simulator Configuration • TCL (Scripting Language) - Topology Configuration • Results presented using Trace Graph utility.

  13. Secret Key Binding Technique How it works?

  14. Pre-Binding Secret Key Exchange Method • This is the first step: • Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange (2 messages) • Takes place in Home Network • After the Pre-binding Secret key Exchange, the communication process continues as normal. Message from Mn to Cn / Cn to Mn (Home Network) MN={FF:01::01}

  15. Secret Key Binding (Binding Test) • Second Method: • Secret Key encryption step • 4 messages Exchange • 2 Binding Test messages • 2 Binding messages Binding Test message from Mn to Cn (Encrypted with (S) {Sn , HoA , T , MnC}) Binding Test Reply from Cn to Mn thru HA (Encrypted with (S) {Sn , T , CnC})

  16. Secret Key Binding (Binding Update) Binding Update (Encrypted with (S) {Sn , T , H(MnC+CnC) , BU} ) Binding Acknowledgement (Encrypted with (S) {Sn , T , BA})

  17. Protocol Achievement • The parameters used in Secret key Binding Technique show how some of the major security threats eliminated (Security) • Number of message exchange, time taken and time delay show the performance efficiency of the protocol (Performance)

  18. Security Consideration *Security Threats

  19. Security Consideration *Possible Vulnerabilities

  20. Performance Consideration *Overall Performance of Mobile Network Simulation

  21. Performance Measurement Secret Key Binding Technique Return Routability

  22. Performance Efficiency measurement & Comparison • Performance Test has been conducted to test the efficiency of the protocol. • Comparison made between RR and SKB • 1 to 1000 processes in a scenario has been tested • Shows the average delay of both protocol. Efficiency ≈ 50%

  23. Secret Key Binding Performance Trace Output

  24. Return Routability Performance Trace output

  25. Contribution • New approach for Binding Update • Secret Key Binding Technique • Pre-Binding Secret key Exchange Method • Secret key encryption Method • Cryptographic Based Binding Method • Improved performance • Less number of packet exchange • Less time taken to finish the process

  26. Conclusion • A new method has been introduced for BU • Secret Key Binding Technique • More Secure (cryptographic Based) • Better Performance • Space for future enhancement

  27. Future Works • Enhancement to the DH key Exchange • IKE or AAA method can be used to improve the Key Exchange Method
