A Security Model of Ubiquitous Power Internet of Things Based on SDN and DFI

摘要

Security is the basic topic for the normal operation of the power Internet of Things, and its growing scale determines the trend of dynamic deployment and flexible expansion in the future to meet the ever-changing needs. While large-scale networks have a high cost of hardware resources, so the security protection of the ubiquitous power Internet of Things must be lightweight. In this paper, we propose to build a platform of power Internet of things based on SDN (Software Defined Network) technology and extend the openflow protocol by adding some types of actions and meters to achieve the purpose of on-demand monitoring, dynamic defense and flexible response. To achieve the purpose of lightweight protection, we take advantage of DFI(Deep Flow Inspection) technology to collect and analyze traffic in the Internet of Things, and form a security prevention and control strategy model suitable for the power Internet of Things, without in-depth detection of payload and without the influence of ciphertext.
