چکیده

Hypervisor-based Intrusion Detection Lionel Litty Master of Science Graduate Department of Computer Science University of Toronto 2005 Unauthorized access by intruders to computer systems is a pervasive and seemingly worsening problem. This research explores the implementation of the Intrusion Sensing and Introspection System (ISIS). ISIS is an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) implemented in a hypervisor, which gives it the advantage of good visibility of events occurring in the operating system but also isolates it from the operating system so that if the operating system is compromised, the attacker cannot tamper with ISIS. ISIS uses this isolation to increase detection accuracy by watching for the symptoms of a successful attack rather than the attack itself. We introduce a symptom called a primary backdoor, which is the first interactive session that an intruder gains after a successful attack. In experiments with various exploits, as well as honeypot machines placed on the Internet, we were able to achieve detection of a variety of different attacks with very few false positives.

A Neuro Fuzzy Based Intrusion Detection System for a Cloud Data Center Using Adaptive Learning

With its continuous improvements, the cloud computing system leaves an open door for malicious activities. This promotes the significance of constructing a malware action detection component to discover the anomalies in the virtual environment. Besides, the traditional intrusion detection system does not suit for the cloud environment. So, the proposed scheme develops an anomaly detection syste...

Lightweight Intrusion Detection for Resource-Constrained Embedded Control Systems

Securing embedded control systems presents a unique challenge. In addition to the resource restrictions inherent to embedded devices, embedded control systems must accommodate strict, non-negotiable timing requirements, and their massive scale greatly increases other costs such as power consumption. These constraints render conventional host-based intrusion detection – using a hypervisor to cre...
