The Department of Homeland Security is teaming up with risk management firm #waverley labs and the #cloud security alliance to start working on an open source #software defined perimeter (#sdp) that they hope can help federal agencies and the IT industry at large better protect cloud and critical infrastructure from distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks.
The idea behind SDP is to only allow TCP connections from pre-authorized users and devices, with the ultimate goal of creating ‘invisible clouds” by eliminating DNS information or IP addresses from application infrastructure.
