To defend against computer and network attacks, multiple, complementary security devices such as intrusion detection systems (IDSs), and firewalls are widely deployed to monitor networks and hosts. These various IDSs will flag alerts when suspicious events are observed. This book is an edited volume by world class leaders within computer network and information security presented in an easy-to-follow style. It introduces defense alert systems against computer and network attacks. It also covers integrating intrusion alerts within security policy framework for intrusion response, related case studies and much more. The book is designed as a reference for researchers and practitioners in industry within the computer network and information security field. However, it is also suitable as a secondary text book for advanced-level students in computer science.

Includes prevention technique models to avoid Denial of Service (DOS) attacks Information is presented in an easy-to-follow style Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
