On Collaborative Intrusions Detection Networks
Abstract: Traditional intrusion detection systems (IDSs) in isolation and are not effective to detect unknown threats. An intrusion detection network (IDN) is a collaborative IDS network intended to overcome this weakness by allowing IDS peers to share detection knowledge and experience, and hence improve the overall accuracy of intrusion assessment. However, malicious insiders and free riders may compromise the efficiency of IDNs. In this talk, I will discuss the key requirements in designing a collaborative IDN system and particularly focus on four research problems, namely, trust management, collaborative intrusion decision, resource management, and collaborators selection. I will also discuss key metrics for the evaluation of such designs including as efficiency, robustness, scalability and incentive-compatibility.
