Abstract

The cognitively challenging task of Intrusion Detection, undertaken by Network Security Engineers (NSE) even through a sophisticated Intrusion Detection System (IDS), demands considerable effort and time in figuring out the real intrusion attempts. We believe that a support system providing contextual assistance in the task of Intrusion detection would be of immense help to the Network Security Engineers. In this paper, we discuss about the features and mechanisms of such an intelligent contextual support system, along with the implementation and quantitative evaluation of it by using certain observable parameters of performance. The results indicated improvement in the productivity of the NSE and also the usability of the IDS.
