Abstract:
Computer security is becoming an ever-growing concern in the current world. Intrusion monitoring and detection systems form a large class of tools that are deployed to combat the scourge of attacks. While there are many such systems available, the typical development cycle of such a system involves signi cant time and effort. In this paper, we propose and develop a modeling and simulation platform constructed over a popular operating system simulator that can aid in the modeling and rapid testing of intrusion detection systems. In order to achieve this goal, we have studied a number of intrusion detection systems and identi ed the various features that are essential to the successful construction of such a platform. We demonstrate the capabilities of this system, called Modeling and Simulation Platform for Intrusion Monitoring/Detection Systems (SIMS), by developing and simulating two intrusion detection system models. In the long run, we also hope that this would become a w
idely used academic and commercial tool.
