Data collection mechanisms for intrusion detection systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Drawing from the experience obtained during the development and testing of a distributed intrusion detection system, we reflect on the data collection needs of intrusion detection systems, and on the limitations that are faced when using the data collection mechanisms built into most operating systems. We claim that it is best for an intrusion detection system to be able to collect its data by looking directly at the operations of the host, instead of indirectly through audit trails or network packets. Furthermore, for collecting data in an efficient, reliable and complete fashion, incorporation of monitoring mechanisms in the source code of the operating system and its applications is needed.

Overview of Intrusion Detection Techniques in Database
Data is one of the most valuable assets in today's world and is used in the everyday life of every person and organization. This data stores in a database in order to restore and maintain its efficiently. Since there is a database that can be exploited by SQL injection attacks, internal threats, and unknown threats, there are always concerns about the loss or alteration of data by unauthorized ...
متن کاملA hybrid approach for database intrusion detection at transaction and inter-transaction levels
Nowadays, information plays an important role in organizations. Sensitive information is often stored in databases. Traditional mechanisms such as encryption, access control, and authentication cannot provide a high level of confidence. Therefore, the existence of Intrusion Detection Systems in databases is necessary. In this paper, we propose an intrusion detection system for detecting attacks...
متن کاملDecision Support for Intrusion Detection Data Collection
Data collection is a critical but difficult activity for intrusion detection. The amount of resources that must be monitored and the rate at which events are generated makes it impossible to use an exhaustive collection strategy. Furthermore, selection and configuration of data collection mechanisms is a tedious and elaborate task for both designers and operators. Therefore, we propose a decisi...
متن کاملMoving dispersion method for statistical anomaly detection in intrusion detection systems
A unified method for statistical anomaly detection in intrusion detection systems is theoretically introduced. It is based on estimating a dispersion measure of numerical or symbolic data on successive moving windows in time and finding the times when a relative change of the dispersion measure is significant. Appropriate dispersion measures, relative differences, moving windows, as well as tec...
متن کاملA Parallel Genetic Algorithm Based Method for Feature Subset Selection in Intrusion Detection Systems
Intrusion detection systems are designed to provide security in computer networks, so that if the attacker crosses other security devices, they can detect and prevent the attack process. One of the most essential challenges in designing these systems is the so called curse of dimensionality. Therefore, in order to obtain satisfactory performance in these systems we have to take advantage of app...
