Intrusion Detection: A Machine Learning Approach

by Jeffrey J P Tsai and Zhenwei Yu

Published 4 January 2011

This important book introduces the concept of intrusion detection, discusses various approaches for intrusion detection systems (IDS), and presents the architecture and implementation of IDS. It emphasizes on the prediction and learning algorithms for intrusion detection and highlights techniques for intrusion detection of wired computer networks and wireless sensor networks. The performance comparison of various IDS via simulation will also be included.

Security Modeling And Analysis Of Mobile Agent Systems

by Jeffrey J P Tsai and Lu Ma

Published 1 January 2006

A mobile agent system could be attacked by malicious agents, platforms and third parties. Mobile agents simply offer greater opportunities for abuse and misuse, which broadens the scale of threats significantly. In addition, since mobile agents have some unique characteristics such as their mobility, security problems have become more complicated in these systems. These security problems have become a bottleneck in the development and maintenance of mobile agent systems, especially in security sensitive applications such as electronic commerce. This book introduces the concept and structure of mobile agent systems and discusses various attacks and countermeasures. The emphasis is on the formal modeling and analysis of secure mobile agent systems and their applications.
