Análisis de vulnerabilidades en redes Ethernet utilizadas para la computación en malla con un Middleware Free Source utilizando la metodología PPDIOO.

Abstract

The Objective was to analyze the vulnerabilities in Ethernet networks used for computing in mesh with a middleware. In the development of the research, the experimental method was used, with the purposed of applying best practiced in a test environment, using the PPDIOO methodology. Globus Toolkit was used as a middleware for mesh management. Among the tools used are Ubuntu Loiq was employed for the attack of denial of distributive services, and Ubuntu-NMAP that services as scanner and Port tracker. About the analysis of vulnerabilities and risks, the fundamentals of Magerit and OWASP were applied. In the experimental study, packet intercept and denial test were used focused on the value of interacting and intercepted packets with respect to the security offered by the network, and the packets lost with respect to performance. For the statistical analysis, Wilcoxon was applied, after the analysis it was concluded that the implementation of practical improvements in Ethernet networks, in the access layers, distribution and nucleus applying the PPDIOO methodology if it led an improvement in the availability and Security of the networks used for computing in mesh, but at the same time it diminished the performance of the same one. In percentage terms, the availability increase by 40.31 %, security by 100% but the yield decreased by 30.20%.
