Abstract

With the ever increasing sophistication of attacking techniques, intrusion detection has been a very active field of research. We are designing and implementing a prototype intrusion detection system (IADIDF) that is composed of distributed agents. This paper describes the function of entities, defines the communication and alert mechanism. There are three main agents include Detectors, Managers and Communicators. Each agent operates cooperatively yet independently of the others, providing for efficiency alerts and distribution of resources. Communication mechanism is composed of three layers, which are Transport, Hosts and MessageContent layers. All entities of the prototype are developed in C program under Linux platform. Then, we analyze system performance, advantages of the prototype, and come to a conclusion that the operating of agents will not impact system heavily.
