Intrusion Signatures and Analysis
by: Mark Cooper   Stephen Northcutt   Matt Fearnow   Karen Frederick  

Intrusion Signatures and Analysis is ideal for courses looking to teach students about the concepts of intrusion detection and network security. The book opens with an introduction into the format of some of the more common detection sensors and then begins a tutorial into the unique format of the signatures and analyses used in the book. After a challenging four-chapter review, the student finds page after page of signatures, in order by categories. Then the content digs right into reaction and responses covering how sometimes what you see isn't always what is happening. The book also covers how students and analysts can spend time chasing after false positives. Also included is a section on how attacks have shut down the networks and web sites of Yahoo, and E-bay and what those attacks looked like. Students will also find review questions with answers throughout the book, to be sure they comprehend the traces and material that has been covered.

Snort Intrusion Detection
by: Jack Koziol  

With over 100,000 installations, the Snort open-source network instrusion detection system is combined with other free tools to deliver IDS defense to medium - to small-sized companies, changing the tradition of intrusion detection being affordable only for large companies with large budgets. Until now, Snort users had to rely on the official guide available on snort.org. That guide is aimed at relatively experience snort administrators and covers thousands of rules and known exploits. The lack of usable information made using Snort a frustrating experience. The average Snort user needs to learn how to actually get their systems up-and-running. Snort Intrusion Detection provides readers with practical guidance on how to put Snort to work. Opening with a primer to intrusion detection and Snort, the book takes the reader through planning an installation to building the server and sensor, tuning the system, implementing the system and analyzing traffic, writing rules, upgrading the system, and extending Snort.
