whitepaper The dirty dozen: preventing common application-level hack attacks2009-08-03 IBM
  As organizations have grown increasingly dependent on online software, the risk of malicious attacks has also become far more serious. Such attacks can bring a business to a standstill, cost a company millions of dollars in lost transactions and potentially tarnish its brand image.

whitepaper Three Waves, One Defense: How Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) Protects From an Ever-Broadening Threat Landscape2009-08-01 3Com
  Off late when the first worms began to assault networks worldwide, modern attackers of network security have been using a version of this ancient military tactic. To date, they have unleashed three successive waves of attacks, each managing to penetrate vulnerable parts of the network. However, one key difference between these attacks and ancient ones is that network hackers have become increasingly sophisticated and have continually adapted their methods as defenses have tightened. For organizations trying to shore up network defenses, It5 important to understand how the security threat landscape has evolved. Only then is it possible to determine the best use of network-security solutions - particularly Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) - to block ongoing and future waves of attacks.

whitepaper Editorial Preface: Special Issue on Intrusion and Malware Detection2009-07-27 Dynamic Publishers
  Welcome to the special issue of Intrusion and Malware detection. Detection of Intrusions and Malware remains a serious problem in the realm of computer and communications security. These include viruses, spam, phishing, spyware, botnets, and other Web attacks. Such security attacks are no longer confined to traditional computer networks or the internet, but are now spreading to other systems such as cyber-physical and automotive systems. To meet the increasing demand for safety, intrusion and malware detection need to provide users with the most timely and effective threat protection with the least amount of complexity. Security researchers predict over 20,000 new malware per hour by 2015, driving vendors to develop newer and faster paradigms to effectively protect their customers.

whitepaper An Anomaly-Based Intrusion Detection Architecture to Secure Wireless Networks2009-07-08 Edith Cowan University
  Ensuring that the appropriate level of security is available in wireless networks is absolutely essential. To aid in the defense and detection of potential threats, WLANs should employ security solutions that include an anomaly-based intrusion detection system (ADS) that identify wireless network intrusions by gathering and analyzing the data that is available on the system. This paper is to propose an hierarchical, extensible and flexible detection architecture to thwart such threats. By splitting anomaly detection into several stages it is possible to minimize the resources used as the common functionality of a system is less affected by a hierarchical system than by a system that keeps the whole of the detection functionality in one stage.

whitepaper The New Face of Intrusion Prevention: Check Point IPS Software Blade Gives Breakthrough Performance and Protection at a Breakthrough Price2009-06-29 Check Point Software Technologies
  Off late organizations had two choices when considering Intrusion Prevention (IPS): an expensive, dedicated IPS system, or an integrated system that lacked robust performance and security. Additionally, most IPS system were not used to their full potential. Deployed offline, they were used more as intrusion detection systems, only logging attacks without providing proactive protection. This approach not only fails to provide protection for a network, but diminishes both the value and Return On Investment (ROI) of an IPS. Given that IPS has become a fundamental component of 'Due Care' in IT security, the next generation of IPS needs to provide organizations with a superior and cost effective option.

whitepaper A Wireless Intrusion Detection System Based on Open-Source Software2009-06-29 ELCA
  The use of wireless networks is growing constantly, not only for public internet access in urban areas, but also to connect computer equipment where wired networks would be impractical. But wireless networks are vulnerable to numerous forms of attack, from breach of confidentiality to denial of service. Since more and more devices can take advantage of wireless networks, and a large number of businesses are relying on wireless network in their day-to-day operations, the potential consequences of these vulnerabilities are getting increasingly serious. While proprietary solutions do exist to address these challenges, they are often expensive and complex to use. This whitepaper describes a simple wireless intrusion detection system, or WIDS, that can be built and operated easily using cheap off-the-shelf hardware and open-source software.

whitepaper A CP Intrusion Detection Strategy on Cloud Computing2009-05-24 Academy Publisher
  Cloud Computing is a general concept of the computing service which is reliance on the Internet for satisfying the computing needs of the users. The providers and the users of the service will be benefit for the new organization pattern. This paper proposes a framework for the construction of a CP intrusion detection system in E-Government. The idea can help people construct a flexible security system based on a well organized strategy and statistical model.

whitepaper A Strategic Review of Existing Mobile Agent-Based Intrusion Detection Systems2009-05-21 Yahoo
  Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) is defined as a component that analyses system and user operations in computer and network systems in search of activities considered undesirable from security perspectives. Applying Mobile Agent (MA) to intrusion detection design is a recent development and it is aimed at effective intrusion detection in distributed environment. From the literature, it is clear that most MA-based IDS that are available are not quite effective because their time to detection is high and detect limited intrusions. This paper proposes a way of classifying a typical IDS and then strategically reviews the existing mobile agent-based IDSs focusing on each of the categories of the classification, for example architecture, mode of data collection, the techniques for analysis, and the security of these intelligent codes.
