Content Name Privacy in Tactical Named Data Networking

摘要

Named Data Networking architecture has significant benefits in military applications, such as in-network caching, security, support of mobile nodes, etc. Content security is provided using signature of the content producer and encryption, however, the content name is visible to everyone that can have sensitive information. Leakage of such information is not desirable in military applications. Therefore, we propose a Content Name Privacy (CoNaP) scheme. CoNaP ensures that the adversary is not able to obtain any information from the content name. Simulations show that CoNaP satisfies more Interest packets with less delay as compared to the recent forwarding solutions.
