Understanding Intrusion Detection through Visualization
2008-01-08 16:16:00 Publisher Springer-VerlagAuthor(s) David SandsISBN 0387276343Release Date 21 November 2005 With the ever increasing use of computers for critical systems, computer security that protects data and computer systems from intentional, malicious intervention, continues to attract attention. Among the methods for defense, the application of a tool to help the operator identify ongoing or already perpetrated attacks (intrusion detection), has been the subject of considerable research in the past ten years. A key problem with current intrusion detection systems is the high number of false alarms they produce. Understanding Intrusion Detection through Visualization presents research on why false alarms are, and will remain a problem; then applies results from the field of information visualization to the problem of intrusion detection. This approach promises to enable the operator to identify false (and true) alarms, while aiding the operator to identify other operational characterist...

Prentice Hall - Intrusion Detection Systems with Snort - Download ebook
2007-11-15 08:04:00 Snort is an open source Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS) which isavailable free of cost. NIDS is the type of Intrusion Detection System (IDS) that is used for scanning data flowing on the network.The book starts with an introduction to intrusion detection and related terminology.You will learn installation and management of Snort as well as other products that work with Snort. These products include MySQL database and Analysis Control for Intrusion Database (ACID). Snort has the capability to log data collected (such as alerts and other log messages) to a database. MySQL is used as the database engine where all of this data is stored. Using Apache web server and ACID, you can analyze this data. A combinationof Snort, Apache, MySQL, and ACID makes it possible to log the intrusion.Download the digital version of this book.Book info:Intrusion Detection Systems with Snortby Rafeeq Ur RehmanPrentice Hall publicationsebook format: PDFISBN-10: 0-13-140733-3Download this ebook here...

What Not to Do After a Security Breach
2007-11-02 14:00:00 Step number one after a security breach: Don’t immediately bring in the outside forensics team — get your attorney up to speed on the attack first. And don’t assume just because you had a break-in that you have to disclose it publicly — it all depends on whether data covered under regulatory mandates was exposed. ...

Defend your network from idle scanning
2007-10-03 08:39:00 If your organization’s intrusion detection system (IDS) identifies a scan of your network, and you just block that IP address, you likely haven’t addressed the real threat to your network. Black hats employ several stealth scanning techniques, and one of those threats is the idle scan. Idle scanning is a procedure that involves scanning TCP ...
Building a cheap and powerful intrusion detection system
2007-09-30 09:00:00 Network-based intrusion-detection systems (IDS) are an integral component of a layered IT security strategy. As October is National Cyber Awareness Month, if your overall security system doesn’t include network-based intrusion detection, now is an excellent time to consider implementing an IDS package. Commercial network-based IDS can often be quite expensive. On the other hand, there ...
Build Yourself a Botwall

Packet fragmentation versus the Intrusion Detection System (IDS) Part I
2007-04-26 06:00:00 Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) have long had a problem with packet fragmentation. This was true five years ago and it is still a problem today. For years the IDS has suffered from several key ailments. Chief amongst them is in how they deal with packet fragmentation. There has been great progress made over the years in how an IDS will deal with packet reassembly, however the problem still remains. Over the past years IDS vendors have grown smarter when it comes to packet fragmentation, and how their IDS's reassemble these fragments. read more
Assumptions in Intrusion Detection - Blind Spots in Analysis
2007-03-29 21:28:00 This paper examines one of the assumptions that form the foundations of packet analysis. A discussion of an approach to analyzing protocol stacks is presented. This approach can be used to determine gaps in the protocol stack where an analyst can be misled. Through the discussion a gap in the TCP/IP protocol stack is examined revealing one of the common assumptions made in intrusion analysis; trusting the content of the protocol field of the IP header. read more
