Network Security White Papers

Towards a Taxonomy of Intrusion Detection Systems and Attacks

Tags:
network security

Overview Nowadays an increasing number of Intrusion-Detection Systems (IDSes) have become available. This development has been driven, among other things, by the growing number of computer security incidents which have highlighted the need for organizations to protect their networks against adversaries. The issue of protecting networks and making them secure and reliable has been addressed in many publications, which have analyzed the problems and made pertinent recommendations. Intrusion Detection (ID) is widely regarded as being part of the solution for protecting today's networks. However, by generating false alarms or not recognizing attacks, IDSes may fail.
