There has been notable proliferation of network-enabled devices. The myriad of security threats and highly publicized data breaches demonstrate the importance of protecting access to the evolving enterprise network. The introduction of Software Defined Network (SDN) has brought about remarkable improvements to network performance, scalability, administration (in terms of flexibility and management). Software Defined Perimeter (SDP) has also some remarkable improvement to network security. This paper examines the pros and cons of a possible integration of SDN and SDP – investigating the potential of an improved set-up, effectiveness, management, and of course security of today’s fast growing proliferation of networks. While carrying out the research and in consultation with referenced papers, this paper; (1) examined possible security threats and/or vulnerabilities that may be exploitable in SDNs, (2) examined Software Defined Perimeter and what it could mean for the security of entire network architecture (Software Defined Network), and (3) investigated the possibility of integrating SDN and SDP into one solution (on the premise that what is unknown or unaccepted cannot be harnessed).
