NETWORK SECURITY USING INTRUSION DETECTION & PREVENTION SYSTEM INTEGRATION MODEL

Abstract

Computer networks are now necessities of modern organisations and network security has become a major concern for them.Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are increasingly a key part of system defence. Various approaches to Intrusion Detection (ID)are currently being used but they are relatively ineffective when used in isolation. Also, numerous other threats have emergedrecently that are particularly troublesome, hence, some solution must be provided to encounter the new generation of complexthreats. Building up this solution requires the integration of different security devices and technologies. This study proposed anintegration model of combining different intrusion detection and prevention system (IDPS) technologies together with othertechnologies with IDPS capabilities for systems security and provide guide to integrate the multiple IDPS technologies. Thisintegrated approach allows systems managers to make more informed decisions regarding intrusion detection.
