[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] OSI security and management model

yariv@bimacs.BITNET (yariv yehuda) (08/28/90)

 Hello ISOland!! I need your help and advice.

 I am interested in the OSI security architecture and security management.
 If you can furnish me with information about the following subjects
 it will be *most* appreciated:


 o Known design problems in the architecture definition and the security
   management model of OSI as described in parts 2 and 4 of the OSI-model.
   Known "holes" in the model? Undefined subjects and "left out"
   ones?

 o Are these security and management models being implemented? By whom?
   How advanced is the research of those teams working on it?
   Have they published any reports?

 o Any known papers (besides the standards) that deal with those subjects?

 o Any references to "validity proofs" of any OSI-model/protocol/service,
   especially about security matters.


 Please E-Mail me (yariv@bimacs.bitnet). If enough interest, I will
 summerize to the net.


                 Thanks in advance.
                                                Yariv
