Modeling Network Intrusion Detection Alerts for Correlation

Signature-based Network Intrusion-Detection Systems NIDSs often report a massive number of simple alerts of low-level security-related events. Many of these alerts are logically involved in a single multi-stage intrusion incident and a security officer often wants to analyze the complete incident instead of each individual simple alert. This paper proposes...
