Issues When Using IPsec Over Geosynchronous Satellite Links

Author: Gregory Totsline Published Jan. 19, 2011 from SANS

This paper describes the salient points of TCP over satellite links, performance enhancing proxies, IPsec, and the issues with the combined use of these technologies. A tradeoff solution and its security implications are then presented. More research in the area of IPsec used in conjunction with performance enhancing proxies is needed to meet security and performance needs of satellite network users.
