SAX: A Privacy Preserving General Purpose Method applied to Detection of Intrusions

Abstract

To overcome the problem of attacks on networks, new Intrusion Detection System (IDS) approaches have been proposed in recent years. They consist in identifying signatures of known attacks to compare them to each request and determine whether it is an attack or not. However, these methods are set to default when the attack is unknown However, it is frequent that an attack has already been detected by another organization and it would be useful to be able to benefit from this knowledge to enrich the database of signatures. Unfortunately this information is not so easy to obtain. In fact organizations do not necessarily want to spread the information that they have already faced this type of attack. In this paper we propose a new approach to intrusion detection in a collaborative environment but by preserving the privacy of the collaborative organizations. Our approach works for any signature even if it needs a complex program to be detected and insure that no information is disclosed on the content of any of the sites. For this pupose, we have developped a general method (sax) that allows to compute any algorithm while preserving privacy of data and also of the program code which is computed.
