Intrusion Detection is the act of detecting actions that attempt to compromise the confidentiality, integrity or availability of a resource. Intrusion Detection can be performed manually or automatically. Manual intrusion detection might take place by examining log files or other evidence for signs of intrusions, including network traffic. A system that performs automated intrusion detection is called an Intrusion Detection System (IDS). An IDS can be either host-based, if it monitors system calls or logs, or network-based if it monitors the flow of network packets. |

Security training: Weakest link |
| By : SC |
Published Date: Mar 10, 2010 |
|
After a number of attacks on the networks within the House of Representatives, legislators got the message: it was time to to begin mandatory security awareness training of all House members and their staffs.
Dan Beard, chief administrative officer of the House of Representatives, was tasked with revamping the House's security policies, notably the training of end-users. SC Magazine Senior Reporter spoke with Beard, as well as a number of other IT experts in similar positions, on the need to educate employees on proper digital safeguards. He found that the human element is the largest security risk in any organization.
Technology solutions are one part of the fix, but holding classes is another vital step. "The most powerful preventive tools will be communication and the reinforcement of secure behaviors," one report concluded.
This new eBook from SC Magazine provides illustrations into how Dan Beard at the House, and several other IT security experts, rely on a mix of positive and negative reinforcements to train their employees, and as a result are witnessing a payoff from motivating their employees to become aware of the dangers lurking out there on their enterprise networks.
