Abstract

Home networking has come in wider use, thus appealing to an increasing need for security. Emerging social concepts such as telecommutation brought a new kind of security threats to the home environment. Besides, low-capacity devices in the home domain may need a central entity dedicated to security enforcement. As SSL-based VPN solutions don't provide end-to-end tunnels, we have extended TLS protocol to delegate trust establishment between a home network server and an external client to a security gateway, acting as a reverse proxy. Moreover, we formally validated it using automatic protocol analyzer AVISPA.
