Method and apparatus for robust NAT interoperation with IPSEC'S IKE and ESP tunnel mode

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a VPN Masquerade feature that provides interoperation of NAT with IKE and ESP tunnel mode within the IPSec security protocol suite, which can prevent crashes, collisions and race conditions that can disable IPSec communication.

Method for managing access to protected computer resources

TL;DR: In this article, a system for securing and tracking usage of transaction services or computer resources by a client computer from a first server computer, which includes clearinghouse means for storing identity data of the first server computers and the client computers, server software means and client software adapted to forward its identity data and identity data from the client computer(s) to the clearinghouse at the beginning of an operating session, and a hardware key connected to the computer, the key being adapted to generate a digital identification as part of the identity data.

Enabling Confidentiality in Content-Based Publish/Subscribe Infrastructures

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on enabling provable confidentiality for commonly used applications and subscription languages in CBPS and present a series of practical provably secure protocols, some of which are novel and others adapted from existing work.

Security Requirements of Time Protocols in Packet Switched Networks

Tal Mizrahi
TL;DR: This document defines a set of security requirements for time protocols, focusing on the Precision time Protocol (PTP) and the Network Time Protocol (NTP), and discusses the security impacts of time protocol practices, the performance implications of external security practices on time protocols and the dependencies between other security services and time synchronization.

Tutorial: Internet/Intranet firewall security-policy, architecture and transaction services

TL;DR: Firewall policy is examined, focusing on both network service access policy and firewall design policy, and the various mechanisms by which transactions can be secured over the Internet/Intranet are covered.

New Directions in Cryptography

TL;DR: This paper suggests ways to solve currently open problems in cryptography, and discusses how the theories of communication and computation are beginning to provide the tools to solve cryptographic problems of long standing.

Key words for use in RFCs to Indicate Requirement Levels

S. Bradner
TL;DR: This document defines these words as they should be interpreted in IETF documents as well as providing guidelines for authors to incorporate this phrase near the beginning of their document.

Using encryption for authentication in large networks of computers

TL;DR: Use of encryption to achieve authenticated communication in computer networks is discussed and example protocols are presented for the establishment of authenticated connections, for the management of authenticated mail, and for signature verification and document integrity guarantee.

Internet Protocol, Version 6 (IPv6) Specification

S. Deering, +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors specify version 6 of the Internet Protocol (IPv6), also referred to as IP Next Generation or IPng, and propose a new protocol called IPng.

Internet Protocol

J. Postel
TL;DR: Along with TCP, IP represents the heart of the Internet protocols and has two primary responsibilities: providing connectionless, best-effort delivery of datagrams through an internetwork; and providing fragmentation and reassembly of data links to support data links with different maximum transmission unit (MTU) sizes.
