Nowadays, honeypots are widely used to divert attackers from the original target and keep them busy within a decoy environment. DeMilitarized Zone (DMZ) is an important zone for network administrators, because many of the services to the public network is provided at this zone. Many of the security tools such as firewalls, intrusion detection systems and several other secu...

Data mining is an iterative and interactive process concerned with discovering patterns, associations and periodicity in real world data. This chapter presents two real world applications where evolutionary computation has been used to solve network management problems. First, we investigate the suitability of linear genetic programming (LGP) technique to model fast and efficient intrusion dete...

Web application security is the major security concern for e-business and information sharing community. The use of e-business and information sharing community are exponentially increased and due to this cyber threats also increased. Current research shows that more than 75% attacks are being deployed at application layer and that of 90% applications are vulnerable to these attacks. Nowadays i...

This paper analyzes the current situation of the intrusion detection system, which is the basis to put forward that data mining technology is to be applied to the intrusion detection system in terms of the problems of the traditional intrusion detection system. Meanwhile, the paper designs the intrusion detection model of data mining. With the study on intrusion detection and data mining, the a...

Decision support for 24/7 enterprises requires 24/7 available Data Warehouses (DWs). In this context, web-based connections to DWs are used by business management applications demanding continuous availability. Given that DWs store highly sensitive business data, a web-based connection provides a door for outside attackers and thus, creates a main security issue. Database Intrusion Detection Sy...

The Internet, and in particular the world-wide web, have become part of the everyday life of millions of people. With the growth of the web, the demand for on-line services rapidly increased. Today, whole industry branches rely on the Internet to do business. Unfortunately, the success of the web has recently been overshadowed by frequent reports of security breaches. Attackers have discovered ...

increasing the popularity of sip based services (voip, iptv, ims infrastructure) lead to concerns about its ‎security. the main signaling protocol of next generation networks and voip systems is session initiation protocol ‎‎(sip). inherent vulnerabilities of sip, misconfiguration of its related components and also its implementation ‎deficiencies cause some security concerns in sip based infra...

A significant number of cyber assaults are attempted against open source internet support software written in C, C++, or Java. Examples of these software packages include the Apache web server, open source DHCP servers, and network share software such as Samba. These attacks attempt to take advantage of inadvertent flaws left in software systems due to a lack of complete testing, inexperienced ...
