Game Theory and Intrusion Detection Systems

Tags:
network security

Overview Intrusion detection systems have long been utilized in detection and response strategy to potential attacks. However, effective policing and finding a right balance between tradeoffs has always been an issue. In fact, it has been the focus of very extensive research. Nevertheless, it remains an inexact science as no solution has yet been found. The balancing of tradeoffs must still be accomplished according to individual network necessities. Tradeoffs could include IDS sensitivity versus false alarm rates. Even after obtaining a satisfactory solution, the system may wish to have a response strategy. Traditional intrusion detection schemes are not evolved enough for complex detection and response strategy. Therefore there is a need for logically formalizing not only effective detection policies but also effective response policies.

The researchers found it was possible to circumvent the Chinese intrusion detection systems (IDS) by ignoring the forged TCP resets injected by the Chinese routers, which would normally force the endpoints to abandon the connection.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?
