Breakthrough intrusion detection and prevention techniques -- brought together in a book for the first time.
* Covers state-of-the-art intrusion detection/prevention techniques based on network behavioral analysis, data visualization, and geospatial analysis.
* Includes endorsements and contributions from several of the industry's most wellknown security experts, including Jeff Forristal (Rain Forest Puppy) and Seth Fogie.
* Authored by a world-renowned innovator in geospatial intrusion analysis.
In recent years, intrusion detection and prevention systems have evolved in response to new threats and new ways of conducting business. However, these new IDS and IPS tools and technologies are not widely known, and information about them is sparse and scattered among multiple sources. In Practical Intrusion Analysis, one of the field's leading innovators introduces these state-of-the-art technologies to today's security professionals, and shows how they can be applied in the day-to-day work of analyzing attacks, mitigating their damage, and investigating their sources. Ryan Trost begins by reviewing the fundamental techniques and business drivers of intrusion detection and prevention, and assessing today's most significant vulnerabilities and attack vectors. Next, he presents a complete tutorial on using each of today's powerful new methodologies. Readers will learn how to use statistical-based IDS and network behavioral analysis alongside a wide variety of emerging technologies, from visualization and geospatial analysis to wireless IDS and web application firewalls. Designed to appeal both to experienced IDS implementers and administrators and to newcomers, Practical Intrusion Analysis presents state-of-the-art solutions for virtually every network and physical device - wired and wireless alike. It is the first and only definitive guide to the next generation of intrusion detection and prevention.
