Abstract

In this paper we discuss the limitations of current Intrusion Detection System technology, and propose a hierarchical event correlation approach to overcome such limitations. The proposed solution allows to detect attack scenarios by collecting diverse information at several architectural levels, using distributed security probes, which is then used to perform complex event correlation of intrusion symptoms. The escalation process from intrusion symptoms to the identified target and cause of the intrusion is driven by an ontology.

Keywords: detection fusion correlation
