CATS - Cooperating Autonomous Detection Systems
Abstract
Today's communication networks are
threatened by an increasing number intrusion
attempts, worms, and denial of service (DoS)
attacks. Apart from general measures for attack
prevention, the possibility to detect ongoing
attacks in order to take appropriate
countermeasures constitutes an important asset
for network security. We present a novel
approach for attack detection based on
cooperating autonomous detection systems
(CATS). While a single detection system is able
to identify ongoing attacks autonomously,
cooperation with remote detection systems
located in other parts of the network can
improve the detection performance.
