Deterministic Networking (DetNet) Security Considerations
draft-sdt-detnet-security-01
Abstract
A deterministic network is one that can carry data flows for real-
time applications with extremely low data loss rates and bounded
latency. Deterministic networks have been successfully deployed in
real-time operational technology (OT) applications for some years
(for example [ARINC664P7]). However, such networks are typically
isolated from external access, and thus the security threat from
external attackers is low. IETF Deterministic Networking (DetNet)
specifies a set of technologies that enable creation of deterministic
networks on IP-based networks of potentially wide area (on the scale
of a corporate network) potentially bringing the OT network into
contact with Information Technology (IT) traffic and security threats
that lie outside of a tightly controlled and bounded area (such as
the internals of an aircraft). These DetNet technologies have not
previously been deployed together on a wide area IP-based network,
and thus can present security considerations that may be new to IP-
based wide area network designers. This draft, intended for use by
DetNet network designers, provides insight into these security
considerations. In addition, this draft collects all security-
related statements from the various DetNet drafts (Architecture, Use
Cases, etc) into a single location Section 7.
