摘要：	The threat of eavesdropping, and the challenge of recognizing and correcting for cor-rupted or suppressed information in communication systems is a consistent challenge.Effectively managing protection mechanisms requires an ability to accurately gaugethe likelihood or severity of a threat, and adapt the security features available ina system to mitigate the threat. This research focuses on the design and devel-opment of a security-focused communication protocol at the session-layer based ona re-prioritized communication architecture model and associated metrics. From aprobabilistic model that considers data leakage and data corruption as surrogates forbreaches of confidentiality and integrity, a set of metrics allows the direct and re-peatable quantification of the security available in single- or multi-channel networks.The quantification of security is based directly upon the probabilities that adversariallisteners and malicious disruptors are able to gain access to or change the originalmessage. Fragmenting data across multiple channels demonstrates potential improve-ments to confidentiality, while duplication improves the integrity of the data againstdisruptions. Finally, the model and metrics are exercised in simulation. The ultimategoal is to minimize the amount of useful information available to adversaries.
