What is User-centric IDS

Chapter 13
Handbook of Research on Computational Forensics, Digital Crime, and Investigation: Methods and Solutions
Instead of monitoring or creating profiles for individual devices, user-centric IDS creates profiles for each user. Thus the system complexity of implementing such an IDS will be much reduced.

Abstract
An Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is a tool used to protect computer resources against malicious activities. Existing IDSs have several weaknesses that hinder their direct application to ubiquitous computing environments like smart home/office. These shortcomings are caused by their lack of considerations about the heterogeneity, flexibility and resource constraints of ubiquitous networks. Thus the evolution towards ubiquitous computing demands a new generation of resource-efficient IDSs to provide sufficient protections against malicious activities. In this chapter we proposed a Service-oriented and User-centric Intrusion Detection System (SUIDS) for ubiquitous networks. SUIDS keeps the special requirements of ubiquitous computing in mind throughout its design and implementation. It sets a new direction for future research and development.
