“…We expect several new domains of steganography to emerge during the next decade. As pointed out by Bezahaf et al, the Internet will be required to adapt to certain requirements of new services, including holographic applications, autonomous vehicles, remote surgery, and automated reality [3]. Such services will provide several new options for the embedding of digital media steganography and CPS steganography.…”

“…Such services will provide several new options for the embedding of digital media steganography and CPS steganography. These new services will exploit 5G+ and low-earth-orbit satellite clusters while being linked to higher performance characteristics in terms of Quality of Service [3], which will provide novel communication protocols that will allow enhanced forms of network steganography. It cannot be stated whether novel hiding patterns will emerge during these developments but their application scenarios will widen.…”

“…However, not only do real-world applications demand very low false-positive rates as false-positives accumulate to large numbers for large-scale scenarios [31], they also have to deal with continuously changing data. For instance, since the invention of the ARPANET, the Internet's traffic characteristics continuously kept changing [3]. This is a significant problem since many detection methods are tailored for Internet or network traffic provided at a given time and under specific environmental attributes.…”

Steganography embraces several hiding techniques which spawn across multiple domains. However, the related terminology is not unified among the different domains, such as digital media steganography, text steganography, cyber-physical systems steganography, network steganography (network covert channels), local covert channels, and out-of-band covert channels. To cope with this, a prime attempt has been done in 2015, with the introduction of the so-called hiding patterns, which allow to describe hiding techniques in a more abstract manner. Despite significant enhancements, the main limitation of such a taxonomy is that it only considers the case of network steganography.Therefore, this paper reviews both the terminology and the taxonomy of hiding patterns as to make them more general. Specifically, hiding patterns are split into those that describe the embedding and the representation of hidden data within the cover object.This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution International 4.0 License.

As corporate networks continue to expand, the technologies that underpin these enterprises must be capable of meeting the operational goals of the operators that own and manage them. Automation has enabled the impressive scaling of networks from the days of Strowger. The challenge now is not only to keep pace with the continuing huge expansion of capacity but at the same time to manage a huge increase in complexity – driven by the range of customer solutions and technologies. Recent advances in automation, programmable network interfaces, and model-driven networking will provide the possibility of closed-loop, self-optimizing, and self-healing networks. Collectively these support the goals of a truly automated network, commonly understood as “autonomic networking” even though this is a prospect yet to be achieved. This paper outlines the progress made towards autonomic networking and the framework and procedures developed during the UK Next Generation Converged Digital Infrastructure (NG-CDI) project. It outlines the operator-driven requirements and capabilities that have been identified, and proposes an autonomic management framework, and summarizes current art and the challenges that remain.

“…Network management complexity in recent years has increased as a result of the exponential growth of global Internet traffic and the size of network infrastructures. New networking paradigms, such as Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV), offer potential improvements in the ability of network operators to manage infrastructures, through the use of network programmability [1]. Alongside the promise offered via the introduction of programmability, it is also essential to develop flexible policy expression mechanisms, capable of capturing user network requirements and mapping them into a network configuration.…”

Intent-based networking provides an efficient mechanism to manage complexity in network management. The paradigm allows users to express their network requirements, and an autonomic framework translates them into a network configuration. Existing efforts focus primarily on modeling connectivity intents for end-users. Nonetheless, in order to deliver autonomic behavior in network management, an intent system must support a wider range of network management processes and model human-to-human interactions, essential for network operation. Furthermore, such interactions may involve nontechnical users and require the design of novel interfaces, supporting free-text and conversational intent expression. Towards this goal, we present an intent architecture that supports novel network management intents, such as network path rerouting and applying periods of 'service protection'. The paper includes details of our prototype implementation that is capable of deploying such intents in under five seconds in a large mininet topology.
