Information security in computer networks with dynamic topology

This paper reviews security problems in computer networks with dynamically reconfigurable topology (e.g. mesh, MANET, computing grid, virtualized network clusters, fog computing network). The dynamically organized networks might be subjected to some specific computer attacks, which are analyzed within this paper. Different methods of security improvement are discussed, and a new method of security flaws detection based on graph modeling is suggested.
