Network infrastructure attacks and their mitigation using an IPS/IDS Snort
Olexa, Martin ; Mészáros, Jan (advisor) ; Buchalcevová, Alena (referee)
This paper gives an insight to detection and prevention systems regarding a network infrastructure. First part of the paper concentrates on key concepts in an information systems security and describes examples of attacks with tools used to mitigate them. A broader description is reserved for IDS/IPS systems with a focus on the Snort software. Second part of the paper analysis a sample attack abusing a vulnerable version of the OpenSSL library. This attack is used to describe a process of getting the necessary information, creating a Snort rule and testing the fixed vulnerability. Aim of this paper is to provide a manual and theoretical background regarding implementing an IDS/IPS solution in a computer network through an example attack.
