Abstract

We present performance evaluation of two low level implementations of the RSEP protocol. The implementations are realized both in Java and C++ languages, while the test and evaluations are performed on two different CPU architectures, ARM and Intel®. RSEP [21] is a security evaluation protocol used to assess security of remote systems over open and insecure networks such as the Internet. RSEP protocol provides an alternative approach to security test and evaluation, which mainly consists of a secure communication protocol, back-end services, and a variety of remote evaluation agents. Secure evaluation of remote entities/assets is a challenging issue with several important requirements such as interoperability, security, robustness, time-efficiency, and ease of applicability. Mobile agents running on hand-held ARM devices and Intel platforms perform the remote evaluation independent of time and location.
