Personal devices (such as smartphones and laptops) often experience incoherent levels of security due to the different protection applications available on the various devices.
This paper presents a novel approach that consists in offloading security applications from personal devices and relocating them inside the network; this will be achieved by enriching network devices with the appropriate computational capabilities to execute generic security applications.
This approach is fostered by the Secured project, which will define the architecture, data and protocols needed to turn this vision into reality
