Intrusion Detection System to Detect Bandwidth Attacks

This paper focuses on theoretical and practical methods for detecting bandwidth attacks upon networks and sites. Comparison of existing methods used in traditional networks, as well as discussion of a new method for detecting attacks is presented. Advantages and limitations of few of methods are considered. Attack Detection helps to plan a security monitoring system on Linux based networks that can detect attacks that originate from internal and external sources. The main aim of a security monitoring system is to identify unusual events on the network that indicate malicious activity or procedural errors. Security monitoring provides two primary benefits for organizations of all sizes: the ability to identify attacks as they occur, and the ability to perform forensic analysis on the events that have occurred before, during, and after an attack
