Abstract

IPSec is a security protocol suite that provides encryption and authentication for IP messages at the network layer of the Internet. ESP Protocol that is one of the two major protocols of IPSec offers encryption as well as optional authentication and integrity of IP Payloads. IV attacks are a security risk of the CBC encryption mode of block ciphers that can be applied to IPSec. We propose methods for protection against IV attack, which provide IV encapsulation and authentication of ESP payloads.
