INTRUSION DETECTION SYSTEM

Intrusion detection systems (IDSs) are software systems that automate the process of monitoring the events occurring in a computer system or network, analyzing them for signs of security problems.

Intrusion Detection System in which, whenever client or clients try to access the server, clients are being warned, if they try to access the server against the constraints specified. Basically a Host based network IDS. The constraints specified are of Days, Time and User Authentication. Days constraint: the user is only allowed to access the server only from Mondays to Saturdays. Time constraint: the user is only allowed to access the server only between 0900 hrs 1700 hrs.

User Authentication constraint: only those users are allowed who are registered at the server with their username and password.

A platform is the hardware or software environment in which a program runs. Most platforms can be described as a combination of the operating system and hardware. The Java platform differs from most other platforms in that it's a software-only platform that runs on top of other hardware-based platforms.

The Java platform has two components: The Java Virtual Machine (Java VM) The Java Application Programming Interface (Java API)

The Java programming language is a high-level language that can be characterized by all of the following buzzwords: Simple Object oriented Robust Secure Architecture neutral Portable High performance Multithreaded Dynamic

Database server maintains two files: Login details Log file: contains the record of the authenticated and unauthenticated users.

Control Strategy describes how the elements of an IDS is controlled, and furthermore, how the input and output of the IDS is managed.

All monitoring, detection and reporting is controlled directly from a central location.

Intrusion detection systems perform the following functions well: Monitoring and analysis of system events and user behaviors. Alerting appropriate clients by appropriate means when attacks are detected. Measuring enforcement of security policies encoded in the analysis engine. Allowing non-security experts to perform important security monitoring functions. Clients can also communicate with each other and also with the server. Messages can be unicasted as well as broadcasted.

We

will implement a prototype of Network and Host based IDS. With the help of various security constraints we will be able to provide security to the network. We will do our attempt to trap the various intrusions possible to the network by unauthenticated users. We will also provide a secured communication between the various clients.
