ChameleonNet: A Scalable MultiModal Network Architecture
Chuan Lin, Qingxin Huang, Yu‐Pin Lin · 2025
As network security threats become increasingly prominent, traditional defense mechanisms, which rely on prior knowledge, struggle to effectively counter unknown threats. This paper presents ChameleonNet, a network architecture based on the PINet framework that incorporates Dynamic Heterogeneous Redundancy (DHR). ChameleonNet consists of five distinct network modalities, making it difficult for attackers to simultaneously target multiple modalities. By leveraging redundant forwarding and a multi-modality arbitration mechanism, ChameleonNet enables proactive defense, effectively mitigating most network-layer attacks.
