  1. Figure 10-4: Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) • HOST IDSs • Protocol Stack Monitor (like NIDS) • Collects the same type of information as a NIDS • Collects data even if host is in NIDS blind spot • Gives data specific to hosts; relevant for diagnosis • Might see data after decryption

  2. Figure 10-4: Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) • HOST IDSs • Operating System Monitors • Collect data on operating system events • Failed logins • Attempt to change system executables • Attempt to change system configuration (registry keys, etc.)

  3. Figure 10-4: Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) • HOST IDSs • Application Monitors (Monitor Specific Applications) • What users did in terms relevant to an application for easy interpretation • Filtering input data for buffer overflows • Signatures of application-specific attacks

  4. Figure 10-4: Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) • Recap • Protocol monitor • Protocol events (suspicious packets, etc.) • Operating monitor • Operating system events (file changes, etc.) • Application monitor • Application events (application commands issued)

  5. Figure 10-4: Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) • HOST IDSs • Weaknesses of Host IDSs • Limited Viewpoint; Only see events on one host • If host is hacked, Host IDS can be attacked and disabled

  6. Figure 10-4: Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) • HOST IDSs • Other host-based tools • File integrity checker programs • Create baseline message digests for sensitive files • After an attack, recompute message digests • This tells which files were changed; indicates Trojan horses, etc.

  7. Figure 10-4: Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) • HOST IDSs • Other host-based tools • Operating system lockdown tools • Limits changes possible during attacks • Limits who may make crucial changes • May interfere with software functioning

  8. Figure 10-4: Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) • Log Files • Flat files of time-stamped events • Individual logs • Integrated logs • Aggregation of event logs from multiple IDS agents (Figure 10-7) • Difficult to create because of format incompatibilities • Time synchronization of IDS event logs is crucial (NTP) • Can see suspicious patterns in a series of events across multiple devices

  12. Figure 10-4: Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) • Analysis Methods • Static packet filtering • Stateful filtering • Full protocol decoding (filters based upon stage in dialogue—login, etc.) • Statistical analysis (frequency thresholds for reporting) • Anomaly detection (compares normal and current operation) • Creates many false positives
