Intrusion Detection Systems with Snort

  Rana M Pir

Network based technology and Cloud Computing is becoming popular day by day as many enterprise applications and data are moving into cloud or Network based platforms. Because of the distributed and easy accessible nature, these services are provided over the Internet using known networking protocols, Protocol standards and Protocol formats under the supervision of different management’s tools and programming language. Existing bugs and vulnerabilities in underlying technologies and legacy protocols tend to open doors for intrusion so many Attacks like Denial of Service (DDOS), Buffer overflows, Sniffer attacks and Application-Layer attacks have become a common issue today. Recent security incidents and analysis Have manual response to such attacks and resolve that attacks are no longer feasible. In Internet and Network system application or platform facing various types of attacks in every day. Intrusion Prevention and the IDS tools that are employed to detect these attacks and discuss some open source tools to prevent and detection of intrusion and how can we use Open Source tools in our system. Snort is an open source Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS) which is available free of cost. NIDS is the type of Intrusion Detection System (IDS) that is used for scanning data flowing on the network. There is also host-based intrusion detection systems, which are installed on a particular host and detect attacks targeted to that host only. Although all intrusion detection methods are still new, Snort is ranked among the top quality systems available today

Keywords- Intrusion detection system, Advanced IDS Techniques Using Snort, Apache, MySQL, PHP, and ACID
