Intrusion Detection Systems White Papers

Log Analysis for Intrusion Detection

Overview Log analysis is one of the most overlooked aspects of intrusion detection. Nowadays every desktop is with an antivirus, companies with multiple firewalls and even simple end-users buying the latest security related tools. However, who is watching or monitoring all the information these tools generate? Or even worse, who is watching the web server, mail server or authentication logs? The author explains about the crucial security information that only few of these events have and nobody notices. A lot of attacks would not have happened (or would have been stopped much earlier) if administrators cared to monitor their logs.
