Abstract
As their scales and complexities increase, the computer-based network systems suffer from increasing probability of being intruded or crashed and decreasing dependability. Such a problem can be solved by extending the traditional security research to survivability research. This paper concentrates on the design and the implementation of the architecture and the applications of network systems to achieve its survivability. For the architecture, a double-barrier secure structure is constructed, i.e. the outer barrier defends and detects intrusions and the inner one tolerates intrusions and faults. The CORBA-based applications tolerate and detect intrusions and faults and recover from the adverse environment. Then the applications of the network system will be performed successfully despite the intrusions and faults, that is, the survivability of the network system will be achieved.
