Abstract
Intrusion detection is an essential component of critical infrastructure protection mechanisms. The traditional pure "knowledge engineering" process of building Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) is very slow, expensive, and error-prone. Current IDSs thus have limited extensibility in the face of changed or upgraded network configurations, and poor adaptability in the face of new attack methods. This thesis describes a novel framework, MADAM ID, for Mining Audit Data for Automated Models for Intrusion Detection. Classification rules are inductively learned from audit records and used as intrusion detection models. A critical requirement for the rules to be effective detection models is that an appropriate set of features need to be first constructed and included in the audit records. A key contribution of the thesis is thus in automatic "feature construction". Using MADAM ID, raw ...
