- 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...

- IDGraphs: Intrusion Detection and Analysis Using Histographs
- Traffic anomalies and attacks are commonplace in today's networks and identifying them rapidly and accurately is critical for large network operators. For a statistical Intrusion Detection System IDS, it is crucial to detect at the flow-level for accurate detection and mitigation. However, existing IDS systems offer only limited support for...

- Wi-Fi 101: Multipath environments and how they affect Wi-Fi propagation
- Ever wonder why moving your computer or changing the direction of your Wi-Fi antenna can make such a difference in signal strength? In this Wi-Fi 101 lesson, I explain how RF signals-especially Wi-Fi ones-react to real world conditions. RF terminology Before I jump into a discussion on multipath...

- 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...

- Compatibility Is Not Transparency: VMM Detection Myths and Realities
- Recent work on applications ranging from realistic honeypots to stealthier rootkits has speculated about building transparent VMMs - VMMs that are indistinguishable from native hardware, even to a dedicated adversary. This paper surveys anomalies between real and virtual hardware and consider methods for detecting such anomalies, as well as possible...

- Passive Identification and Analysis of TCP Anomalies
- This paper focuses on passive measurements of TCP traffic, main component of traffic. It proposes a heuristic technique for the classification of the anomalies that may occur during the lifetime of a TCP flow, such as out-of-sequence and duplicate segments. Since TCP is a closed-loop protocol that infers network conditions...

- POSEIDON: A 2-Tier Anomaly-Based Network Intrusion Detection System
- Intrusion Detection Systems IDSs were introduced by Anderson and formalized later by Denning. Nowadays, there exist two main types of network intrusion detection methods: anomaly-based and signature-based. In signature-based methods, a characteristic trait of the intrusion is developed off-line, and then loaded in the intrusion database before the system can...

- Unsupervised Anomaly Detection in Network Intrusion Detection Using Clusters
- Most current network Intrusion Detection Systems IDSs employ signature-based methods or data mining-based methods which rely on labelled training data. This training data is typically expensive to produce. Moreover, these methods have difficulty in detecting new types of attack. Using unsupervised anomaly detection techniques, however, the system can be trained...
