Abstract
SDN (Software Defined Networking) is an architecture that aims to improve the control of network and flexibility. It is mainly connected with open flow protocol and ODIN V2 for wireless communication. Its architecture is central, agile and programmatically configured. This paper presents a security analysis that enforces the protection of GUI by requiring authentication, SSL/TLS integration and logging/security audit services. The role based authorization FortNOX and ciphers like AES and DES will be used for encryption of data and improving the security of SDN environment. These techniques are useful for enhancing the security framework of the controller.
