A Distributed Intrusion Detection System with Protection from an Internal Intruder

Resumo

The protection of modern distributed information networks from external and internal intruders continues to be of great importance due to the development of data transmission and processing technology. The article describes a model of data processing in the distributed intrusion detection system (DIDS) and method of using of hidden agents to protect from an internal intruder. The distribution of the functions on data processing between the DIDS local agent and central data processing node is presented. We describe a method of hiding of presence of the agent from the system user while retaining control of it from the part of the operator.
