Abstract
The importance of the network security problems comes into prominence with the growth of the Internet. This article presents a special approach to the intrusion detection (ID) problem, which relies on the collaboration of the protection programs running on different hosts. Computers connected to networks are to be protected by various means (Kemmerer & Vigna, 2002).
