Product Description

This is a AIR FORCE INST OF TECH WRIGHT-PATTERSON AFB OH SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING AND MANAGEMENT report procured by the Pentagon and made available for public release. It has been reproduced in the best form available to the Pentagon. It is not spiral-bound, but rather assembled with Velobinding in a soft, white linen cover. The Storming Media report number is A422514. The abstract provided by the Pentagon follows: The United States Air Force extensively uses information systems as a tool managing and maintaining its information. The increased dependence on these systems in recent years has necessitated the need for protection front threats of information warfare and cyber terrorism. One type of protection utilizes intrusion detection systems to provide indications that intrusive behavior has occurred. Other types of protection may include packet filtering, cryptography and strong user authentication. Traditional approaches toward intrusion detection rely on features that are external to computer processes. By treating processes as black-boxes, intrusion detection systems may miss a wealth of information that could be useful for detecting intrusions. This thesis effort investigate the effectiveness of anomaly-based intrusion detection using system call information from a computational process. Previous work uses sequences of system calls to identity anomalies in processes. Instead of sequences of system calls, information associated with each system call is used to build a profile of normality that may be used to detect a process deviation. Such information includes parameters passed, results returned and the instruction pointer associated with the system call. Three methods of detecting deviations are evaluated for this problem. These include direct matching, relaxed matching and artificial immune system matching techniques. The test data used includes stack- based buffer overflows, heap-based buffer overflows and file binding race conditions.
