Predicting the resource consumption of network intrusion detection systems
Holger Dreger, Anja Feldmann, Vern Paxson, Robin Sommer · 2008
When installing network intrusion detection systems (NIDSs), operators are faced with a large number of parameters and analysis options for tuning trade-offs between detection accuracy versus resource requirements. In this work we set out to assist this process by understanding and predicting the CPU and memory consumption of such systems.
