Abstract

A Firewall is a necessity in the cyber world today. Cyber-attacks have become a guarantee for any large business or any network containing useful information. Firewalls can be very effective when intelligently designed and run for a single machine; however, they have an issue when they are part of an interconnected firewall network. Administrators are responsible for updating or changing each firewall individually, which has been shown to lead to many errors. In this paper we propose a solution: smart cooperative firewalls. Firewalls that can talk to each other, don’t need to be manually updated, and therefore have faster and more accurate attack response procedures. Our proposal, named DSN (Distributed Secured Network), turns multiple, but separate, firewalls into a dynamic network of firewalls all working together to combat cyber-attacks.

VI. CONCLUSION/FUTURE WORK

The DSN tool is a prototype, but has potential to solve many security problems currently faced by organizations running large or small networks. This tool has the potential to ease workloads of administrators, decreasing potential for errors, and has the potential to increase security. The DSN gives every machine on the network, except the one where the initial attack happens, foresight. They already know an attack may be coming. If an attack crashes one machine, all the others will know the attack is coming and drop it before it gets there. Additionally the DSN tool will continue to work after any single machine crashes.

Future work requires extensive testing of this tool, and optimization of the code. The DSN has shown to be effective on our virtual network setup, but we would like to test it on a real network against real attacks and compare the results to systems in use today. Other research can also be applied to truly explore the security and efficiency of the DSN. [10] [11].

Having an interconnected system with many machines has become a common practice for many organizations. All of these networks need security. Unfortunately current security systems cannot insure safety. They have too many flaws. Our goal is to create a polished, lightweight tool that is used to create and protect a safer cyber-world.
