Abstract: An intrusion detection method for detecting an intrusion in data traffic on a data communication network parses the data traffic to extract at least one protocol field of a protocol message of the data traffic, and associates the extracted protocol field with a model for that protocol field. The model is selected from a set of models. An assessment is made to determine if a contents of the extracted protocol field is in a safe region as defined by the model, and an intrusion detection signal is generated in case it is established that the contents of the extracted protocol field is outside the safe region. The set of models may comprise a corresponding model for each protocol field of a set of protocol fields.

Abstract: A method and a system for classification of intrusion alerts in computer network is provided. The method comprises the steps of monitoring traffic data in a computer network, detecting an intrusion, providing an intrusion alert and data in relation to the intrusion alert, generating a statistical analysis of the data in relation to the intrusion alert and classifying the intrusion alert based on said statistical analysis. The intrusion alerts and the data in relation to an intrusion alert may be generated by anomaly-based intrusion detection system. The generating a statistical analysis may comprise generating information about a statistical distribution of n-grams in the data. The classification may comprise comparing the statistical analysis with a model analysis of intrusion alerts with predefined alert classes.
