Improving the Efficiency and Robustness of intrusion detection Systems: With the increase in the complexity of computer systems, existing security measures are not enough to prevent attacks. Intrusion detection systems have become an integral part of computer security to detect attempted intrusions. Intrusion detection systems need to be fast in order to detect intrusions in real time. Furthermore, intrusion...; Tags: Georgia Institute Of Technology, Intrusion Detection System, Intrusion Detection, Network Security, Security, Networking; White papers 2007-12-01
Dependency-Based Distributed intrusion detection: Distributed network intrusion detection has attracted much attention recently. The main focus in this work is on zero-day, slow-scanning worms, of which no existing signatures are available. End hosts are organized into regions based on network knowledge, which it posits is positively correlated to the dependency structure. Leveraging on this...; Tags: Region, Distributed Network Intrusion Detection, Hidden Markov Model, Intrusion Detection, Network Security, Security, Networking; White papers 2007-12-01
Use honeypots to track and mitigate botnets: Bots pose a serious threat to both individual and corporate environments. They are often used for DDoS attacks, to send spam, and as spyware to steal sensitive information from the victim's machine. In this chapter download from Virtual HoneyPots: From Botnet Tracking to Intrusion Detection, learn how to...; Tags: Addison-Wesley, Intrusion Detection, Network Security, Robots, Security, Networking, Emerging Technologies; Download resources 2007-10-19
intrusion detection and Security Auditing in Oracle: Monitoring the database applications is a critical component of achieving a strong defense-in-depth around the sensitive data. However, to be efficient and effective one must use the right combination of tools. Monitoring should never replace other layers in the security stack, instead it should complement the existing pieces. Database intrusion...; Tags: Oracle Corp., Intrusion Detection, Security, Network Security, Storage, Databases, Networking, Hardware, Enterprise Software, Software, Data Management; White papers 2007-10-18
10 ways to secure borderless networks: Company networks are undergoing de-perimeterization, as online collaboration with partners, customers, telecommuters, and others outside the physical LAN becomes more and more important to doing business. The old security model is dependent on "border patrol," via firewalls, intrusion detection and prevention systems, DMZs, and other perimeter protection methods. In the...; Tags: Network, Telecommuting, Networking, Intrusion Detection, Security, Human Resources, Workforce Management; Download resources 2007-10-09
Secure CS-MARS: Cisco Security Monitoring, Analysis, and Response System (CS-MARS) is a powerful tool that can dramatically increase your knowledge of activity on your network. But as a topology-aware SIM product, CS-MARS often contains sensitive information that needs to be protected from malicious users. If an attacker gains access to...; Tags: Chapter, Security Monitoring, Cisco Systems Inc., Intrusion Detection, Security; Book chapters 2007-08-08
Target-Based TCP Stream Reassembly: In their landmark 1998 paper, "Insertion, Evasion, and Denial of Service: Eluding Network Intrusion Detection," Thomas Ptacek and Timothy Newsham exposed some weaknesses in Intrusion Detection Systems IDS. The authors revealed that intrusion detection systems cannot be effective and accurate because they do not necessarily process, or perhaps, even observe...; Tags: Sourcefire Inc., Intrusion Detection System, TCP, Tcp/Ip, Intrusion Detection, Networking, Network Security, Security; White papers 2007-08-03
IPS Vs. IDS: Similar on the Surface, Polar Opposites Underneath: A common notion is that an Intrusion Prevention System IPS is nothing more than an Intrusion Detection System IDS deployed in-line with blocking capabilities. This paper explains why that notion is incorrect. Although IPS and IDS both examine traffic looking for attacks, there are critical differences. IPS and IDS both...; Tags: Intrusion Prevention System, Notion, Intrusion Detection System, Intrusion Prevention, Intrusion Detection, Network Security, Security, Networking; White papers 2007-07-01
Characterizing Intrusion Tolerant Systems Using a State Transition Model: Intrusion detection and response research has so far mostly concentrated on known and well-defined attacks. The authors believe that this narrow focus of attacks accounts for both the successes and limitation of commercial in Intrusion Detection Systems IDS. Intrusion tolerance, on the other hand, is inherently tied to functions and...; Tags: Duke University, Attack, Intrusion Detection, Security, Network Security, Networking; White papers 2007-06-30
