A Cost-Sensitive Model for Preemptive Intrusion Response Systems
Overview The proliferation of complex and fast-spreading intrusions not only requires advances in intrusion detection mechanisms but also demands development of sophisticated and automated intrusion response systems. This paper presents a novel cost-sensitive model for intrusion response that incorporates preemptive deployment of the response actions. Specifically, the technique relies on comparing the cost of deploying a response against the cost of damage caused by an "Un-attended" intrusion and decides to preemptively deploy a response with maximum benefit. The technique further allows adaptation of responses to the changing environment through evaluation of success and failure of previously triggered responses. The paper demonstrates the advantages of the approach and evaluates it using a damage reduction metric.
