Network intrusion detection: Getting hooked up
Network Taps are the best!We tried to use spanning ports on our core switches but since we only had two available SPAN ports, we could not provide both for the use of IDS. We needed to have a SPAN port available for packet analysis and other network needs.Also, some traffic...

Network intrusion detection: Getting hooked up
After discussing Intrusion Detection Systems IDS in general, I wanted to take a closer look at Network Intrusion Detection Systems NIDS. A NIDS sits on a network and monitors traffic in real-time, looking for possible malicious activity. After filtering the traffic and checking it against various signatures, an event is...

An Analysis of Network Scanning Traffic as It Relates to Scan-Detection in Network Intrusion Detection Systems
Network Intrusion Detection is, in a modern network, a useful tool to detect a wide variety of malicious traffic. The ever present prevalence of scanning activity on the Internet is fair justification to warrant scan detection as a component of network intrusion detection. Whilst current systems are able to perform...

Using Sonification to Teach Network Intrusion Detection: A Preliminary Usability Study
Network intrusion detection, or NID the unauthorized perpetrations of people and computer viruses in a computer network is a complex topic to teach, because students have to study extensive amounts of data from network logs and identify intricate patterns of perpetrations, making these tasks visually tiring, among other problems. This...

Correlation-Based Load Balancing for Network Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems
In large-scale enterprise networks, multiple network intrusion detection and prevention systems are used to provide high quality protections. In this context, keeping load evenly distributed among the systems is crucial. This is because even load distributions provide protection to the networks and improve the networks' quality of service. A challenging...

A High-Performance Network Intrusion Detection System
This paper presents a new approach for network intrusion detection based on concise specifications that characterize normal and abnormal network packet sequences. The specification language is geared for robust network intrusion detection by enforcing a strict type discipline via a combination of static and dynamic type checking. Unlike most previous...

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...

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...

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...
