Intrusion detection system alerts mechanism

摘要

A system and method for analyzing Intrusion Detection System (IDS) alert data associated with a computer network is described. The method includes applying first association rules to obtained IDS alert data associated with a computer network and processing the obtained IDS alert data with the first association rules. Analyst feedback data associated with the processed obtained IDS alert data is received, and a training data set from the analyst feedback data is received. New association rules are determined based upon the training data set, and the new association rules are outputted to a display of a computing device. Outputting the new association rules may include outputting patterns within the IDS alert data of false positive alerts. The new association rules may be applied back to the obtained IDS alert data.
