Abstract
Techniques for optimizing routing decisions based on security metrics within a network environment are described herein. In some cases, by using various security metrics, such as encryption indicators, attestation indicators, secureness metrics, and reliability metrics, an exemplary system can assess the security level and reliability of network paths. These metrics may provide valuable insights into the trustworthiness and integrity of participating nodes and links and enable informed decision-making regarding path selection.
