The upcoming protocol architecture for mobile communications in the Internet, Mobile IP, inhibits various potential vulnerabilities to malicious attacks and, therefore, requires the integration of appropriate security services. This paper analyses the most prominent current approaches for improving the functionality of Mobile IP from a security point of view, focussing on the criteria of efficiency, scalability, transparency, and manageability which are crucial for application in real world networks. The three big topics covered are authentication and key management, confidentiality and integrity, and efficient micro-mobility support. The paper concludes with an outlook to ongoing research efforts addressing the problems identified before.read more

Method and apparatus for providing mobile and other intermittent connectivity in a computing environment
TL;DR: In this article, a Mobility Management Server coupled to the mobile network maintains the state of any number of mobile end systems and handles the complex session management required to maintain persistent connections to the network and to other peer processes.
Patent
Method and apparatus for providing secure connectivity in mobile and other intermittent computing environments
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a method and apparatus for enabling secure connectivity using standards-based Virtual Private Network (VPN) IPSEC algorithms in a mobile and intermittently connected computing environment enhance the current standards based algorithms by allowing migratory devices to automatically establish security sessions as the mobile end system roams across homogeneous or heterogeneous networks while maintaining network application session.

Experience with the host identity protocol for secure host mobility and multihoming
TL;DR: This paper reports on the experience with implementing HIP and experimenting with it as a mobility management and host multihoming solution, and describes the approach for implementing HIP as an extension to Linux and FreeS/WAN IPsec, including the use and extension of standard APIs.

Re-thinking Security in IP Based Micro-Mobility
TL;DR: This paper presents a secure micro-mobility architecture that scales well between administrative domains, which are already using different kind of network access authentication techniques, and establishes simultaneously a trust relationship between a mobile node and an anchor point, and updates address bindings at the anchor point and at a peer node in a secure way.
