Toward accountable Internet: Multi-level accountability enhancement of HIP for ease of deployment

Abstract

Host Identity Protocol (HIP) a protocol initiated by IETF has big potency to replace existing Internet protocol. HIP has potency to solve various existing Internet problem issues such as mobility, multi-homing, interoperability of Internet, and security. Unfortunately, deployment rates of HIP still low. This work tries to propose solution to increase deployment level of HIP by providing multi-level accountability scenarios for the Internet user and incentive scenarios for HIP user. By providing multi-level accountability Internet user can choose privacy level according to their preference. Incentive scenario tries to provide more benefit for HIP user according to user accountability level by providing different contents and services.
