Abstract :
iSCSI is a standard network storage protocol. The working theory and security mechanism of iSCSI were studied and the threat of this protocol was pointed out. In order to improve performance, we put forward a secure iSCSI scheme based on SSL. A secure iSCSI system was implemented by adding SSL functions to iSCSI protocol. The results of experiments showed that throughput of the security iSCSI based on SSL increased 25% and CPU utilization rate decreased 50%, compared with the secure iSCSI based on IPSec.
