“…We investigated ten network description languages. They are YANG (Bjorklun, M., 2010), NDL (Grosso, P., et al, 2007), NML (Ham, J.J. van der, et al, 2013), INDL (Ghijsen, M., et al, 2012), Table 2. From the survey of these existing languages, it is apparent that CIM is the best choice for honeynet description.…”

Abstract:Several languages have been proposed for the task of describing networks of systems, either to help on managing, simulate or deploy testbeds for testing purposes. However, there is no one specifically designed to describe the honeynets, covering the specific characteristics in terms of applications and tools included in the honeypot systems that make the honeynet. In this paper, the requirements of honeynet description are studied and a survey of existing description languages is presented, concluding that a CIM (Common Information Model) match the basic requirements. Thus, a CIM like technology independent honeynet description language (TIHDL) is proposed. The language is defined being independent of the platform where the honeynet will be deployed later, and it can be translated, either using model-driven techniques or other translation mechanisms, into the description languages of honeynet deployment platforms and tools. This approach gives flexibility to allow the use of a combination of heterogeneous deployment platforms. Besides, a flexible virtual honeynet generation tool (HoneyGen) based on the approach and description language proposed and capable of deploying honeynets over VNX (Virtual Networks over LinuX) and Honeyd platforms is presented for validation purposes.

“…Finally, network description languages are mainly network-oriented [43]; therefore, they do not provide semantics and mechanism for describing computing architectures. This has been, recently, changed [91] with the proposal of INDL, which provides support for basic computing infrastructure.…”

“…We assume that Cloud providers has their own ontologies to describe their resources and attribute profiles, e.g. Infrastructure and Network Description Language (INDL) [5] for virtual infrastructures provisioning. When Cloud clients consume Cloud resources from a Cloud provider P , they are provided the provider's ontology, say O P .…”

Abstract-In Cloud computing, the data are not only managed by the data owner but also by Cloud providers. Sophisticated Clouds collaboration scenarios require that these data objects can be accessed distributively among Cloud providers, while still being under the control of data owners. It brings security challenges for distributed authorization and trust management in which existing proposed schemes have not fully solved. In this paper, we propose a Dynamic Trust Establishment approach which can incorporate into Cloud provisioning life-cycles for the multi-provider Intercloud environment. It relies on attribute-based policies as the mechanism for trust evaluation and delegation. The paper also presents a practical implementation approach for attribute-based policies using Multi-type Interval Decision Diagrams which has advantage in term of evaluation complexity.
