Novel Evaluation Framework of Intrusion Detection Systems With Respect to Security Policies: Intrusion Detection System is an integral component of the computer security infrastructure. It is usually put in place to detect computer security policy violations. While its role is important, its effectiveness is not easily measurable. This paper proposes a framework for assessing how well a rule-based Intrusion Detection System is...; Tags: Computer Security, Intrusion Detection System, Computer, Graduate Center, Intrusion Detection, Productivity, Security, Viruses And Worms, Network Security, Networking; White papers 2006-04-27
An Evaluation Framework for the Analysis of Covert Channels in the TCP/IP Protocol Suite: Information hiding techniques can be used by criminals and terrorists to communicate over covert channels within the TCP/IP protocol suite and can be used to overcome firewalls and most other forms of network intrusion detection and prevention systems. The work described in this paper is the covert channel concept and...; Tags: Analysis, Tcp/Ip, Network Technology, Networking; White papers 2006-03-31
Profiling Memory Subsystem Performance in an Advanced POWER Virtualization Environment: Processor virtualization allows concurrent operating system execution environments to co-exist and share a fixed set of hardware resources. One of its many advantages is that this technology facilitates server consolidation, reducing both operating costs and power consumption. However, virtualization incurs a performance penalty due to added complexity and the conflicts...; Tags: Performance, Processor Virtualization, Virtualization, Performance Management, Storage Management, Utility Computing, Hardware, Human Resources, Workforce Management, Storage; White papers 2006-01-13
