Abstract

Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) have emerged as one of the most promising ways to secure systems in the network. To be effective against evasion attempts, the IDS must provide tight bounds on performance. Otherwise an adversary can bypass the IDS by carefully crafting and sending packets that throttle it. This can render the IDS ineffective, thus resulting in the network becoming vulnerable.
