Mediated overlay services (MOSES): Network security as a composable service

摘要: In recent years, organizations have been shifting focus to their core business competencies, and reducing total cost of ownership (TCO) associated with training management IT infrastructure. the same motif, are establishing security survivability frameworks as an integral part strategy so provide acceptable quality-of-service for clients employees. However, current paradigm outsourced managed service providers (MSSPs) is often difficult transition to, offers little control organization, does not allow ldquobest breedrdquo composition, risks vendor lock-in due complexity migrating a different MSSP. We present MOSES (Mediated Overlay Services), architecture composing network services such anti-spam, antivirus, automated vulnerability detection mitigation, filtering. roughly modeled on web framework. addition ease-of-deployment, allows economies scale reduction ownership. this paper, we discuss our motivation high-level view architecture. highlight advantages, illuminate potential drawbacks, broad research agenda toward realizing vision.
