DecaffeinatID: A Very Simple IDS / Log Watching App / ARPWatch For Windows

2008-06-19 00:37:16 by Editor in Irongeek's Security Site
 
...simple ARP Watch like application for Windows. In a short matter of time, feature creep set in. DecaffeinatID is a simple little app that acts as an Intrusion Detection System (more of a log watcher really) to notify the user whenever fellow users at their local WiFi hotspot/ LAN are up to the kind of "reindeer games" that often happen at...

A Simple Situation Model for Complex Events

2008-07-15 09:29:06 by Tim Bass in The Complex Event Processing Blog
 
...simple baseline concepts here. Your comments and improvements are much appreciated 1. A situation model of a complex event is an abstract representation of a described or experienced situation that we wish to detect in real-time 2. Situation models are composed of four primary objects a. A spatial-temporal reference framework (spatial...

Simple SNMP scans yield network data

2008-03-05 00:00:00 by HASH0x8473a30 in Network World on Security
 
System administrators have long been wary of the security implications of Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), but a recent experiment by "ethical hacking" group GNUCitizen has shown that many SNMP-enabled devices are left unguarded and may be prone to giving away sensitive information

...simple oversight? There are a number of controls that could have reduced the risk of this occurring One a secondary note, but no less important in my opinion. It seems that people (in general) provide too much information willingly, without understanding what the risks could be. Personally, I rarely complete surveys that ask me for...

Modelling Situations for Event Processing

2008-07-15 05:04:21 by Tim Bass in The Complex Event Processing Blog
 
...simple we will limit the model to airplanes and omit objects like birds, buildings; but we will include wind, air speed, and direction Our situational model consists of primary objects, in this case an airplane. Now we need a simple model of an airplane, which is modelled, in this overly simple example, as span, velocity, acceleration,...

A Complex Event = Sum (Events) + Situational Knowledge

2008-08-16 09:11:34 by Tim Bass in The Complex Event Processing Blog
 
...simple way and expect to get accurate results. You need knowledge, represented byone or moresituationalmodels, to process complex events Some folks, like to say that a complex event is simply an event which is an aggregation of two more more event objects. If you follow this (flawed) logic, then counting integers is complex event processing;...
