Secure Routing for Future Communication Networks (Dagstuhl Seminar 15102)

This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 15102 "Secure Routing for Future Communication Networks". Routing is a fundamental mechanism in communication networks, and its security is critical to ensure availability and prevent attacks; however, developing and deploying secure routing mechanism is still a challenge. Significant research effort is required to advance routing security in key areas: intra-domain routing, inter-domain routing, routing in new Internet architectures, and routing in mobile and wireless networks. The seminar covered these general aspects along with the following important guiding questions. How to systematise the topic area of routing security? What are evolutionary or revolutionary options towards more secure routing systems? How to secure inter-domain routing? How to secure intra-domain routing and routing in mobile/wireless settings? How to achieve data plane/forwarding security?
