A Distributed Intrusion Detection System Using Cooperating Agents
نویسنده
چکیده
The current intrusion detection systems have a number of problems that limit their configurability, scalability and efficiency. There have been some propositions about distributed architectures based on multiple independent agents working collectively for intrusion detection. However, these distributed intrusion detection systems are not fully distributed as most of them centrally analyze data collected from distributed nodes which may lead to a single point of failure. In this paper, a distributed intrusion detection architecture is presented that is based on autonomous and cooperating agents without any centralized analysis components. The agents cooperate by using a hierarchical communication of interests and data, and the analysis of intrusion data is made by the agents at the lowest level of the hierarchy. This architecture provides significant advantages in scalability, flexibility, extensibility, fault tolerance, and resistance to compromise. A proof-of-concept prototype is developed and experiments have been conducted on it. The results show the effectiveness of the system in detecting intrusive activities.

A Framework for Distributed Intrusion Detection using Interest-Driven Cooperating Agents
Current distributed intrusion detection systems are not completely distributed with respect to data analysis because of the presence of centralized data analysis components. This deficiency has many undesirable implications. Here we present a framework for doing distributed intrusion detection with no centralized analysis components. Our approach uses agents that are the only data analysis comp...

متن کاملA Robust and Fault-Tolerant Intrusion Detection System
Because all vulnerabilities of a network cannot be predicted beforehand, and penetration of the system cannot always be prevented, intrusion detection systems have become necessary to ensure the security of a network. The intrusion detection systems need to be accurate, adaptive, and extensible. Given these requirements and the complexities of today’s network environments, the design of an intr...
متن کاملRequirements of Information Reductions for Cooperating Intrusion Detection Agents
We consider cooperating intrusion detection agents that limit the cooperation information flow with a focus on privacy and confidentiality. Generalizing our previous work on privacy respecting intrusion detection for centralized systems we propose an extended functional model for information reductions that is used for cooperation between intrusion detection agents. The reductions have the foll...
