摘要
网络入侵检测系统是发现网络安全事件的有力工具.然而在实际的应用中它会产生大量的冗余告警,极大地增加了实时安全分析的难度.提出具有周期性告警是误告警的思想,并通过实际周期的寻找和确定来消除相关冗余告警.算法在中国教育科研网的一个分支网络测试,实验中能够实时去除90%以上的告警,同时对网络中部分周期性告警产生的原因也进行了分析,分析发现这些告警的确是误告警.
NIDS (Network Intrusion Detection System) is an effective device to discover network security events. Nevertheless it will produce a large number of false positives in real network, which makes security analysis in real-time very difficult. This paper puts forward a new idea that alerts with periodicity are false positives, and filters relevant redundant alerts by the discovery and determination of periodicity. This algorithm has been tested in a branch network of CERNET (China Education and Research Network), and over 90% alerts can be removed in this way. Meanwhile some root causes that trigger periodic alerts can be discovered, it can be validated that these alerts are false positives indeed.
