Coworkers at the University of Tel Aviv have presented a prototype for a new host-based intrusion detection system (HIDS) for Linux. Named Korset, it uses static code analysis and promises zero failures.
A host-based intrusion system (HIDS) models an application’s behavior and if the behavior deviates from the model, it sends an alarm. Earlier methods of intrusion detection depended either on static data derived from machine learning or on program policies created by developers. In the views of Professor Avishai Wool and kernel developer Ohad Ben-Cohen, the first method is susceptible to false positives and the second one costly.
