Abstract: A network service packet (NSP) header security method includes receiving an NSP on a communication interface, analyzing, by a processor, the NSP in order to identify a plurality of service functions and an associated service function path for the plurality of service functions, identifying, by the processor, which security function or functions may be performed by each of the plurality of service functions on an NSP header to be generated for the NSP, requesting, by the processor, at least one key for securing at least part of the NSP header, receiving the at least one key on the communication interface, generating, by the processor, the NSP header for the NSP, securing, by the processor, the NSP header based on the at least one key, and sending, on the communication interface, the NSP with the NSP header to one of the plurality of service functions.

Abstract: Techniques are presented for optimizing secure communications in a network. A first router receives from a second router an encrypted packet with an unknown security association. The first router examines the packet to determine whether the counter value is in a range of predicted counter values. Additionally, a key server is configured to provision routers that are part of a virtual private network. The key server selects a counter value that is part of a security association and calculates a key value. The key server sends the key value together with the security association to enable routers to exchange encrypted packets with each other in the virtual private network using the key value and the security association. The key server increments the counter value to a value within a range of counter values capable of being predicted by the routers.

Abstract: A method for routing in a quantum network is provided. The method may include receiving parameters including a fidelity with coherence decay time and an entanglement generation rate for each quantum node in a mesh quantum network by a controller, the controller being configured to communicate with each quantum node of a plurality of quantum nodes in the mesh quantum network. Each quantum node includes a quantum memory and a processor. The method may also include analyzing the fidelity with coherence decay time and the entanglement generation rate to yield a determination of a path fidelity with a path coherence decay time and a path entanglement generation rate between at least one pair of quantum nodes. The method may further include, based on the determination, selecting a quantum communication path from a source node to a destination node.

Abstract: A server sends information to a client that allows the client to establish a first key at the client. The server then receives a session ID that has been encrypted using the first key. The first key is then established at the server, which can then decrypt the session ID using the first key. After the server validates the session ID, it determines a second key that is different from the first key. The server then receives the session ID encrypted with the second key, and decrypts the session ID encrypted with the second key.
