Intrusion Prevention Techniques on Windows and Unix
Rich Murphey explores intrusion prevention techniques on windows and unix at DEF CON 11, examining log-analysis and practical defenses.
Summary
Architecture and Background
Rich Murphey - Intrusion Prevention Techniques on Windows and Unix Intrusion Prevention Techniques on Windows and Unix What exactly is intrusion prevention and why the heck should we care?
Vulnerability Analysis
This talk surveys some of the common features of Intrusion Prevention systems, largely constrained by architectural layering of Windows and Unix kernels We then look at a case study of intrusion prevention and discuss how it differs from IDS, Firewall, AV, and others.
