software defined networking

 Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is an architectural approach to networking that separates the control plane from the data plane, providing centralized control and programmability to network management. In traditional networking, control functions and forwarding functions are tightly coupled in network devices like routers and switches. However, in SDN, the control plane is abstracted from the underlying hardware and implemented as software.


In an SDN architecture, there are three main components:

  1. Data Plane: The data plane consists of network devices such as switches, routers, and access points. These devices are responsible for forwarding network traffic based on instructions received from the control plane.

  2. Control Plane: The control plane is the brains of the SDN architecture. It consists of one or more controllers that have a global view of the network and make decisions about how network traffic should be forwarded. Controllers communicate with the data plane devices using a standardized protocol like OpenFlow.

  3. Southbound and Northbound APIs: The southbound API is used to communicate between the control plane and the data plane. OpenFlow is one of the most common southbound APIs used in SDN. The northbound API, on the other hand, allows external applications or services to interact with the SDN controller to control and manage the network programmatically.

Detecting Co-Resident Attacks in 5G Clouds! Detecting co-resident attacks in 5G clouds involves identifying malicious activities where attackers share physical cloud resources with victims to steal data or disrupt services. Techniques like machine learning, behavioral analysis, and resource monitoring help detect unusual patterns, ensuring stronger security and privacy in 5G cloud environments. Detecting Co-Resident Attacks in 5G Clouds In a 5G cloud environment, many different users (including businesses and individuals) share the same physical infrastructure through virtualization technologies like Virtual Machines (VMs) and containers. Co-resident attacks occur when a malicious user manages to place their VM or container on the same physical server as a target. Once co-residency is achieved, attackers can exploit shared resources like CPU caches, memory buses, or network interfaces to gather sensitive information or launch denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. Why are Co-Resident Attack...

Network Architecture

An introduction to satellite network architecture Satellite networking is a digital revolution that connects people from across the world instantly -- from enabling real-time communications to making the world a safer place. A satellite is an artificial object put into the Earth's orbit to gather and distribute crucial data. Since the late 1950s, satellites have only transmitted and received data, as bent pipe satellites weren't able to perform other functions. In modern times, a group of satellites in the same orbit forms a satellite network. Satellite networks process data and provide accurate visual and textual information. Unlike terrestrial network infrastructure, satellite network scalability isn't limited by geography and cost. According to a March 2025 report from Goldman Sachs, the global satellite market is expected to hit $108 billion by 2035, growing sevenfold from its current valuation. Satellite networks consist of the following: The ground equipment. The sa...
