Why MPTCP is good for you... :)
The main features of MPTCP are:
- Support for handling multiple, peridical requests at once.
- Two operation modese: direct and indirect connections.
- Variable header lenght to include only features needed and keep overhead low.
- Transparent and adaptative payload compression.
- Works over unmodified IPv4/IPv6.
- Security
- asymmetric encryption,
- client/server certificates,
- indipendence from the cipersuite used
The philosophy of the protocol:
Intelligent Network, Stupid Clients
Our protocol aim to give an implicit intelligence to the network, by allowing the storage of information in the network nodes themselves without the need of level-5 proxies and enforcing end-to-end cryptography.
Protect Against The Network
Since we are delegating the data storage to the network itself, it is important to protect the data from malicious attacks. The only entity allowed to get the content is the Client, so data is to be protected end-to-end.
