Abstract

Firewalls are the frontier defense in network security. Firewalls provide a set of rules that identify how to handle individual data packets arriving at the network. Firewall configuration is increasingly becoming difficult. Filter properties called hint at possible conflicts between rules. An argumentation framework could provide ways of handling such conflicts. Verification of a firewall involve finding out whether anomalies exist or not. Reconfiguration involves removing critical anomalies discovered in the verification phase. In this paper, we show how a Defeasible Logic Programming approach with an underlying argumentation based semantics could be applied for verification and reconfiguration of a firewall.
