Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTowards an Integrated Intrusion Detection Monitoring in High Speed NetworksHassen SallayProblem statement: Security Management has become a critical aspect for large scale distributed systems. Particularly, recent Distributed Intrusion Detection Systems (DIDS) schemes in High Speed Networks (HSN) have raised new serious management problems and challenges. Increasing the effectiveness of IDS monitoring is primordial to satisfy the restrictive constraints in such large multi-domains environment for narrow context of HSN. Approach: We … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 30 Jun 2011 · 6,560 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Enhancement for Security Mechanism in RoutersKhalid Khanfar, Riyad Khanfar, Walid Al-Ahmad, Eyas El-QawasmehProblem statement: Routers are very important components in any network. They control and organize the in-bound traffic and the out-bound traffic. Controlling a router by an intruder leaves the entire network unsecured. In different studies, Router security was discussed from different aspects such as the routing protocol, the firewall. In this research, we present a new effective security mechanism for … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,172 accessesView PDFCite
