In this approach, the immunity-based agents monitor the situation in the network. These agents can take appropriate actions according to the underlying security policies. Specifically, their activities are coordinated in a hierarchical fashion while sensing, communicating, decision and generating responses. Such an agent can learn and adapt to its environment dynamically and can detect both known and unknown intrusions. The proposed intrusion detection architecture is designed to be flexible, extendible, and adaptable that can perform real-time monitoring. This paper provides the conceptual view and a general framework of the proposed system. In the end, the architecture is illustrated by an example to show it can prevent the attack efficiently.展开更多

The SSS is a non\|hardware component and is intended to prevent most attacks performed by malicious hosts, by providing mechanisms that ensure attack detection and provide integrity to mobile agents. This noble technique involves encapsulating partial results obtained on each intermediate host and binding these results together using a hash function, thus forming a strong bonded chain that cannot be compromised. An analytical model to explore the system performance was also developed.展开更多
