Abstract
In this paper we identified an important problem, cross-domain privacy preserving inter firewall redundancy detection we propose a novel privacy-preserving protocol for detecting such redundancy. Our protocol is most beneficial if both parties are willing to benefit from it can collaborate in a mutual manner. There are many special cases that could be explored based on our current protocol. For example, there may be hosts or network address translation (NAT) devices between two adjacent firewalls. Our protocol incurs no extra online packet processing overhead and the offline processing time is less than a few hundred seconds
