CLEVER integrates P4-based programmable switches and smart NICs (DPUs) to revolutionize network security within the cloud-edge continuum. By leveraging hardware-accelerated technologies, CLEVER tackles modern challenges like DDoS attack mitigation and vulnerability detection with unmatched efficiency.
Key Highlights 🔑
- DDoS Detection & Mitigation: CLEVER employs cascaded Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) distilled into Lookup Tables (LUTs). This enables real-time attack classification and mitigation directly on programmable devices, minimizing latency and power use.
- Stateless Advantage: Models using stateless features achieve 93.75% accuracy while being optimized for P4 implementation—ideal for wire-speed operations.
- Enhanced Security: Advanced techniques like quantized neural networks and hierarchical LUT architectures ensure scalable, energy-efficient, and precise network operations.
CLEVER’s innovations redefine secure, high-performance networking, paving the way for smarter infrastructure.
