Abstract:
A security policy deployment method and apparatus are provided, and the method includes: when a lifecycle state of a virtualized network function VNF changes, generating, by a management network element, a security policy of the VNF, where the security policy of the VNF is used to perform access control on the VNF; and sending, by the management network element, the security policy of the VNF to a control device. The management network element is a network element configured to perform lifecycle management on the VNF. By using the method or apparatus provided in embodiments of this application, the security policy of the VNF can be adjusted in time when the lifecycle state of the VNF changes, thereby greatly reducing a possibility that a bug occurs in the security policy of the VNF because the VNF changes.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide example key obtaining methods and apparatus. One example method includes receiving, by a terminal, a selected key generation capability from a network element, where the selected key generation capability is used to indicate a key generation capability that is determined by the network element based on a first key generation capability combination, and where the first key generation capability combination includes at least one key generation capability of the terminal. The terminal can then generate a first key parameter and a first base key based on the selected key generation capability.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention disclose an identity authentication method and apparatus. The NFV system includes a VNF including a first virtual network function component VNFC and a second VNFC. The method includes: generating a public key and a private key of the first VNFC and a public key and a private key of the second VNFC; writing or sending the private key of the first VNFC and the public key of the second VNFC to the first VNFC; and writing or sending the public key of the first VNFC and the private key of the second VNFC to the second VNFC, where the public key and the private key of the first VNFC and the public key and the private key of the second VNFC are used for identity authentication of the first VNFC and the second VNFC.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, an apparatus, and a system for increasing network security. The method for increasing network security includes: receiving, by a network management system, a certificate message reported by a network element; generating, by the network management system, a first list; when determining that a certificate corresponding to certificate information in the first list needs to be revoked, generating, by the network management system, a certificate revocation request file according to the certificate information, and removing the certificate information in the first list from the first list; and sending, by the network management system, the certificate revocation request file to a public key infrastructure (PKI) system.
Abstract:
The embodiments of the present invention disclose a certificate acquiring method and device. A virtualized network function manager (VNFM) receives a certificate application proxy message sent by a virtualized network function (VNF) instance. The VNFM uses the authentication information to authenticate the VNF instance, and when the authentication succeeds, sends a certificate application message to a certificate authority (CA). Then the VNFM receives a certificate issued by the CA, and sends the certificate to the VNF instance. In this way, through a trusted link between the VNFM and the certificate authority, the instantiated VNF instance applies for a certificate issued by the certificate authority, thereby effectively ensuring security of a management channel between the VNF instance and the VNFM
