Rule Protecting Scheme for Snort

  • Published : 2005.11.25

Abstract

This paper addresses the problem of protecting security policies in security mechanisms, such as the detection policy of an Intrusion Detection System. Unauthorized disclosure of such information might reveal the fundamental principles and methods for the protection of the whole network. In order to avoid this risk, we suggest two schemes for protecting security policies in Snort using the symmetric cryptosystem, Triple-DES.
