1 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec1 IPSec Internet Protocol Security And You

2 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec2 Outline What is IPSec, and what is it for? The IPSec Framework How do IKE, AH, and ESP fit together? Routing and Technology Issues Management and Policy Issues How To Learn More

3 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec3 IPSec Scope (RFC 2401) Good news: IPSEC is designed to provide interoperable, high quality, cryptographically-based security for IPv4 and IPv6.

4 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec4 IPSec Scope (RFC 2401) Bad news: The set of IPSec protocols employed in any context, and the ways they are employed, will be determined by the security and system requirements of users, applications, and/or sites/organizations.

5 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec5 IPSec Scope IPSec is a technology. IPSec is NOT a solution. Better: IPSec is a technology framework.

6 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec6 Outline What is IPSec, and what is it for? The IPSec Framework How do IKE, AH, and ESP fit together? Routing and Technology Issues Management and Policy Issues How To Learn More

7 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec7 IPSec Standards-based IP Security Framework –Data Integrity –Data Confidentiality –Data Origin Authentication –Anti-Replay Protection Supported in modern router software –Cisco IOS 12.1(19) or later –Juniper JUNOS 5.3 or later (with Encryption Services PIC)

8 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec8 IPSec Router performs additional operations: 1.Receive the packet and verify/decrypt it 2.Inspect the headers of the packet 3.Based on that inspection, put the packet into an outbound queue 4.Transmit the packet when it reaches the front of the outbound queue and sign/encrypt it Version (4 or 6) Protocol (TCP, etc) Source IP Address Destination IP Address Source PortDestination Port FlagsTime To Live Data (possibly with sequence number) Checksum IP 1 2 3 4

9 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec9 Ciphers, Signing and Keys (Oh My!) IPSec is a framework that supports many cryptographic technologies. What fits into the IPSec framework? –Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange –Ciphers –Hashes –Shared Secrets –Certificates –Perfect Forward Secrecy

10 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec10 Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange Agree on a secret shared key, without a secure channel. Suppose Alice and Bob want to agree on a shared secret key using the Diffie-Hellman key agreement protocol. They proceed as follows: First, Alice generates a random private value a and Bob generates a random private value b. Both a and b are drawn from the set of integers. Then they derive their public values using parameters p and g and their private values. Alice's public value is g a mod p and Bob's public value is g b mod p. They then exchange their public values. Finally, Alice computes g ab = (g b ) a mod p, and Bob computes g ba = (g a ) b mod p. Since g ab = g ba = k, Alice and Bob now have a shared secret key k. http://www.rsasecurity.com/rsalabs/node.asp?id=2248

11 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec11 Ciphers Obscure data, so that it can only be read by someone with the right “key” DES, AES, RSA, RC5, Blowfish, Skipjack, etc.

12 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec12 Hashes Take a bunch of data, make a digest of it, so that changes can be detected MD5, SHA-1, RIPEMD-160

13 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec13 Shared Secrets Prove identity by demonstrating knowledge of the same data Not necessary to actually transmit the shared secret.

14 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec14 Perfect Forward Secrecy RFC 2409: Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) refers to the notion that compromise of a single key will permit access to only data protected by a single key. For PFS to exist the key used to protect transmission of data MUST NOT be used to derive any additional keys, and if the key used to protect transmission of data was derived from some other keying material, that material MUST NOT be used to derive any more keys.

15 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec15 Certificates Establish trust based on mutual trust of a third party X.509

16 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec16 IPSec Security Associations IPSec Security Associations (SA) –between two routers (or hosts) –Unicast only –Unidirectional –Selection Criteria: Drop, Apply IPSec, Pass without IPSec

17 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec17 IPSec Router IPSec flow: 1.Receive the packet. 2.Inspect the headers of the packet. Matching Security Association (SA)? 3.If so, verify/decrypt 4.Inspect headers again. Make routing decision, and look for matching Security Association (SA). 5.If so, sign/encrypt 6.Transmit the packet. Version (4 or 6) Protocol (TCP, etc) Source IP Address Destination IP Address Source PortDestination Port FlagsTime To Live Data (possibly with sequence number) Checksum IP 1 2 5 3 4 6

19 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec19 The Internet Key Exchange (IKE) RFC 2409: The purpose is to negotiate, and provide authenticated keying material for, security associations in a protected manner. Processes which implement this memo can be used for negotiating virtual private networks (VPNs) and also for providing a remote user from a remote site (whose IP address need not be known beforehand) access to a secure host or network.

20 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec20 IKE Phase 1 Phase 1 is where the two ISAKMP peers establish a secure, authenticated channel with which to communicate. This is called the ISAKMP Security Association (SA).

21 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec21 IKE Phase 2 Phase 2 is where Security Associations are negotiated on behalf of services such as IPsec or any other service which needs key material and/or parameter negotiation.

22 18 July 2004Bill Nickless / IPSec22 IKE New Group "New Group Mode" is not really a phase 1 or phase 2. It follows phase 1, but serves to establish a new group which can be used in future negotiations.
