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). The collaboration of the elements of the proposed intrusion detection system uses the so-called peer-to-peer (P2P) communication model. The article first presents the usage of the P2P paradigm for improving the protection of the operating systems (Bauer, 2005).
