INTRUSION DETECTION, AND PREVENTION SYSTEM USING GUFAX MICRO FINANCE BANK PLC, IKOT EKPENE AS A CASE STUDY

1.   Introduction

An intrusion detection system (IDS) monitors network traffic and monitors for suspicious activity and alert the system or network administrator. In some cases the IDS may also respond to anomalous or malicious traffic by taking action such blocking the user or source IP address from accessing the network. IDS come in a variety of “flavors” and approach the goal of detecting suspicious traffic in different ways. There are network based (NIDS) and host based (HIDS) intrusion detection systems are placed at a strategic point or points within the network to monitor traffic to and from all devices on the network. HIDS host intrusion detection system on the network. HIDS monitors the inbound and outbound pockets from the device only and will alert the user. Intrusion detection, prevention and trace back system are primarily focused on identifying possible incidents, logging information about them, attempting to stop them and reporting them to security administers. Intrusion prevention systems (IPS), also known as intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDPS), are network or system activities for malicious activity.  Guide to intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDPS).

1.1     Statement of the Problem

The following problems were identified in the existing system that necessitated the development of the intrusion detection and prevention system:

1. Absence of an  intrusion  detection and prevention system.

2. Insecurity of customer information.

3. Inability to prevent intruders from gaining access to sensitive information stored in the computer system.

4. Low level of file security.
