Abstract:
Based on emerging Artificial Intelligence (AI) tasks, cloud-edge-terminal architecture can provide powerful computing, intelligent interconnection, and real-time response, which can also be regarded as AI-driven network. Unfortunately, multiple network layers in the AI-driven network usually face various types of network threats such as malicious network reconnaissance, side-channel attacks, and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS). Traditional security solutions respond to network threats after the occurrence of attacks. To solve this problem, the concept of Moving Target Defense (MTD) has been proposed as a proactive defense mechanism that aims to defend against cyber attacks before they occur. In this paper, we firstly provide a thorough analysis of the threats in the cloud-edge-terminal network. Then we conduct a comprehensive survey to discuss the concept, design principles, and main classifications of MTD. Next, we further introduce the development potential in terms of AI-powered MTD on each network layer. Meanwhile, we also explore how MTD improves the security of AI algorithms. Lastly, we describe the existing challenges and research directions of MTD. The aim of this paper is to provide an in-depth understanding for the readers on how to realize the integration between MTD and AI-driven network.
