Application of Statistical Process Control Methods for IDS


Muhammad Sadiq Ali Khan

As technology improves, attackers are trying to get access to the network system resources by so many means. Open loop holes in the network allow them to penetrate in the network more easily; statistical methods have great importance in the area of computer and network security, in detecting the malfunctioning of the network system. Development of internet security solution needed to protect the system and to with stand prolonged and diverse attack. In this paper Statistical approach has been used, conventionally Statistical Control Charts has been used for quality characteristics however in IDS abnormal access can be easily detected and appropriate control limit can be established. Two different charts are investigated and Shewhart chart based on average has produced better accuracy. The approach used here for intrusion detection in such a way that if the data packet is drastically different from normal variation then it can be classified as attack. In other words a system variation may be due to some special reason. If these causes are investigated then natural variation and abnormal variation can be distinguished which can be used for distinction of behaviors of the system.
