Networking is deeply evolving with the rise of programmability and virtualization. The concept of SDI (Software-Defined Infrastructure) has emerged from SDN (Software-Defined Networking) and NFV (Network Function Virtualization) making thus the configuration of the network highly dynamic and adaptable in real-time. However, new methods and tools have to be defined to properly monitor and configure this type of infrastructure. Current works are mainly limited to apply former approaches of traditional network but do not exploit the novel capabilities offered by these technologies. The goal of the associate team is thus to define methodologies taking benefit of them for an efficient monitoring and use of SDI resources while investigating security issues it brings.
