- Network Intrusion Detection Using Random Forests
- Network Intrusion Detection Systems NIDSs have become an important component in network security infrastructure. Currently, many NIDSs are rule-based systems whose performances highly depend on their rule sets. Unfortunately, due to the huge volume of network traffic, coding the rules by security experts becomes difficult and time-consuming. Since data mining...

- An Immune Inspired Network Intrusion Detection System Utilising Correlation Context
- Network Intrusion Detection Systems NIDS are computer systems which monitor a network with the aim of discerning malicious from benign activity on that network. While a wide range of approaches have met varying levels of success, most IDSs rely on having access to a database of known attack signatures which...

- 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...

- ATLANTIDES: An Architecture for Alert Verification in Network Intrusion Detection Systems
- This paper presents an architecture1 designed for alert verification (i.e., to reduce false positives) in network intrusion-detection systems. The technique in this paper is based on a systematic and automatic anomaly-based analysis of the system output, which provides useful context information regarding the network services. The false positives raised by...

- High-Performance Network Intrusion Detection Through Parallelism
- Network intrusion detection has become increasingly popular in recent years due to the proliferation of Internet-based security attacks. Network Intrusion Detection Systems NIDS inspect the content of incoming packets on a network for known attacks and alert the operator when they are found. Intrusion detection is computationally expensive, and this...

- New Trend of Intrusion Detection System for High-Speed Networks
- Network Intrusion Detection System NIDS is an important and practical tool for network security. To guarantee a precise detection the NIDS must detect packets at a wire speed. However, with the recent trend of high-speed networks, the capability of a single NIDS can not meet the speed's demand, resulting in...

- Backtracking Algorithmic Complexity Attacks Against a NIDS
- Network Intrusion Detection Systems NIDS have become crucial to securing modern networks. To be effective, a NIDS must be able to counter evasion attempts and operate at or near wire-speed. Failure to do so allows malicious packets to slip through a NIDS undetected. This paper explores NIDS evasion through algorithmic...

- NetSpy: Automatic Generation of Spyware Signatures for NIDS
- This paper presents NetSpy, a tool to automatically generate network-level signatures for spyware. NetSpy determines whether an untrusted program is spyware by correlating user input with network traffic generated by the untrusted program. If classified as spyware, NetSpy also generates a signature characterizing the malicious substrate of the spy-ware's network...

- A Parallel Architecture for Stateful Intrusion Detection in High Traffic Networks
- In a scenario where network bandwidth and traffic are continuously growing, network appliances that have to monitor and analyze all flowing packets are reaching their limits. These issues are critical especially for Network Intrusion Detection Systems NIDS that need to trace and reassemble every connection, and to examine every packet...

- Linux Security Modules Enhancements: Module Stacking Framework and TCP State Transition Hooks for State-Driven NIDS
- Until the availability of Kernel 2.6 the Linux operating system lacked general support to integrate security mechanisms into the kernel. The Linux Security Module Framework LSM was designed to overcome this limitation. Although LSM provides a solid baseline for kernel security, it lacks important features. In this paper two of...

- Combining Evasion Techniques to Avoid Network Intrusion Detection Systems
- Three different Network Intrusion Detection System NIDS evasion techniques were combined into a three-dimensional testing space. These evasion techniques manipulated the TCP/IP protocol instead of relying on application-specific evasions.
