Lightweight Agents for Intrusion Detection

Tags:
network security

Overview The authors have designed and implemented an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) prototype based on mobile agents. The agents travel between monitored systems in a network of distributed systems, obtain information from data cleaning agents, classify and correlate information, and report the information to a user interface and database via mediators. Agent systems with lightweight agent support allow runtime addition of new capabilities to agents. This paper describes the design of the Multi-agent IDS and show how lightweight agent capabilities allowed to add communication and collaboration capabilities to the mobile agents in the IDS.
