چکیده

As new legislation is written mandating notification of affected parties following the compromise of confidential data, reliable investigative procedures into unauthorized access of such data assume increasing importance. The increasing costs and penalties associated with exposure of sensitive data can be mitigated through forensic preparation and the ability to employ digital forensics. A case study of the compromise of several systems containing sensitive data is outlined, with particular attention given to the procedures followed during the initial response and their impact on the subsequent digital forensic examination. Practical problems and challenges that arise in intrusion investigations are discussed, along with solutions and methodologies to address these issues. This case study illustrates both the importance of evaluating the evidence analyzed and of corroborating findings and conclusions with multiple independent sources of evidence. An initial response that incorporates forensic procedures provides a solid foundation for a successful and thorough forensic examination. a 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Improvement and parallelization of Snort network intrusion detection mechanism using graphics processing unit

Nowadays, Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS) are widely used to provide full security on computer networks. IDS are categorized into two primary types, including signature-based systems and anomaly-based systems. The former is more commonly used than the latter due to its lower error rate. The core of a signature-based IDS is the pattern matching. This process is inherently a computatio...

EIDA: An Energy-Intrusion aware Data Aggregation Technique for Wireless Sensor Networks

Energy consumption is considered as a critical issue in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Batteries of sensor nodes have limited power supply which in turn limits services and applications that can be supported by them. An efcient solution to improve energy consumption and even trafc in WSNs is Data Aggregation (DA) that can reduce the number of transmissions. Two main challenges for DA are: (i)...
