0 The adoption of Internet security protocols bootstrapping

The provision of network-wide security enhancements to the Internet proved to be harder than many had originally expected. We use value to the problem of bootstrapping the adoption of security technologies to model the existing models of networks. We describe a variety of measures and strategies that can help to catalyze this assumption. With this framework, we offer a series of short case studies for previous attempts of security technologies for the Internet to deploy. We provide a detailed study of strategies for deploying advanced security protocols in the Internet domain name system (DNS). Finally, we show such as the adoption of this DNS security extensions, to alleviate bootstrapping problems that protocols have hampered the provision of other advanced security can help.

The problem of the provision of new security technologies in an existing network infrastructure we are assuming that the existing network is a model, first group of users & deploy of has the security technology comes at a price. We focus on the cost per user for the deployment, since these costs often the main barriers to adoption. We define c I to the fixed cost of user u ? U i providing the technology. We assume that this cost to adoption remains constant; If the adoption depends on the adoption of cost decisions of other users, the cost could however simply are represented as a function.
