摘要:Much attention needs to be paid to different types of security threats and related attacks in the LAN and the interconnected environment. A variety of controls and counter mechanisms covering different layers of TCP/IP protocol suite are already available. But most of them have several issues related to cost, compatibility, interoperability, manageability, effectiveness etc. and hence multiple protection devices need to be installed. In this paper we propose a comprehensive security mechanism which can detect and guard against a variety of spoofing and sniffing based cyber attacks in the local area networks. The solution does not require any additional hardware and is fully backward compatible with existing versions of ARP as no modifications are required to the existing LAN protocols. It also provides necessary detection and mitigation mechanism for the common type of DoS, MITM attacks & provides mobility along with a consistent working environment to the users as they roam around on different networks
