Abstract

SDN-API-Sec-Fast is a blockchain-based authorization system designed to enhance the performance and security of cross-domain Software-Defined Networks (SDNs). This article explores the architecture of SDN-API-Sec-Fast, which includes a read-only mode and conflict detection mechanisms to ensure efficient and conflict-free access control. The system employs a consortium blockchain to provide a decentralized and transparent authorization process, addressing the scalability and single point of failure issues inherent in traditional centralized approaches. The article delves into the security analysis of SDN-API-Sec-Fast, examining its resilience against various attacks such as spoofing, replay, and privilege escalation. Experimental results demonstrate the system's performance in terms of latency and throughput, comparing it with existing solutions like SDN-API-Sec and B-DAC. The proof-of-concept implementation showcases the practical applicability of SDN-API-Sec-Fast, highlighting its potential as a promising solution for secure and efficient cross-domain SDN environments.
