- PARNIDS: A Scalable Network Intrusion Detection Loadbalancer
- Network Intrusion Detection Systems NIDS are becoming an increasingly important security measure. With rapidly increasing network speeds, the capacity of the NIDS sensor can limit the ability of the system to detect intrusions. The PARNIDS parallel NIDS architecture overcomes this limitation by distributing network traffic load over an array of...

- Fast and Scalable Pattern Matching for Network Intrusion Detection Systems
- High-speed packet content inspection and filtering devices rely on a fast multi-pattern matching algorithm which is used to detect predefined keywords or signatures in the packets. Multi-pattern matching is known to require intensive memory accesses and is often a performance bottleneck. Hence specialized hardware-accelerated algorithms are required for line-speed packet...

- Adaptive Alert Throttling for Intrusion Detection Systems
- Each time an intrusion detection system raises an alert it must make some attempt to communicate the information to an operator. This communication channel can easily become the target of a denial of service attack because, like all communication channels, it has a fixed capacity. If this channel can become...

- Intrusion Detection Systems and a View to Its Forensic Applications
- Traditional computer security has often emphasised prevention, and to a lesser degree, the detection of system security violations. However, it is recognised that the forensic aspect to the overall model of computer security is equally as important. The area of computer forensics lends itself heavily to the response of a...

- Bayesian Event Classification for Intrusion Detection
- Intrusion Detection Systems IDSs attempt to identify attacks by comparing collected data to predefined signatures known to be malicious (misuse-based IDSs) or to a model of legal behavior (anomaly-based IDSs). Anomaly-based approaches have the advantage of being able to detect previously unknown attacks, but they suffer from the difficulty of...
