Intrusion Detection System


INTRUSION DETECTION SYSTEM
An intrusion detection system (IDS) is a system that monitors network traffic for suspicious activity and issues alert when such activity is discovered. Detection and reporting is the primary function, some intrusion detection systems are capable of taking actions when malicious activity or anomalous traffic is detected, in which includes blocking traffic sent from suspicious IP addresses. 

Although intrusion detection system monitor networks for potentially malicious activity, they are also prone to false alarms. Consequently organizations need to fine-tune their IDS system when they first install them or constantly update it. This would mean properly configuring their intrusion detection system to recognize what normal traffic on their network looks like compared to potentially malicious activity. 
BENEFITS 
Intrusion detection systems offer organizations a number of benefits, starting with the ability to identify security incidents. An IDS can be used to help analyze the quantity and types of attacks, and organizations can use this information to change, upgrade or enhance their security system or implement a more effective controls. An intrusion detection system can also help companies identify bugs or problems with their network device configurations. these metrics can then be used to assess future risk.

    This is good! Can this apply on cloud servers?

    Very interesting, would it be something like how anti-virus or anti-malware program?

    That is a very good idea ... but some forms of attack are not easily recognized by NIDS.. for example, Encrypted Packets.. Think a way to solve that too

Research Backgrounds

Research Background This project will be anomaly based, which is an intrusion detection system for detecting both network and computer intrusions and misuse by monitoring system activity and classifying it as either if its normal or malicious intent. Intrusion detection system these days has been too enhanced. Thus the user friendliness of existing IDS system now are far too complicated for any young developers who plan to learn and study or even use the existing IDS system as a simulation for the final year project. These days, existing IDS all around the world have commonly process 3 instructions which are to detect any intrusions or malicious attack and then after on to alert the head of security or the person/user in charge and then wait for them to act, and lastly to adapt to the kind of malicious intent and prevent it from ever happening again. Therefore, this projects minimizes and reduced the actions of the IDS system and allows user to have lesser features ...
