Abstract

Traditional network security technologies such as firewalls and intrusion detection systems usually work according to a static ruleset only. We believe that a better approach to network security can be achieved if we use quantified levels of risk as an input. In this paper, we describe a dynamic access control architecture which uses risk to determine whether to allow or deny access by a source connection into the network. A simulation of our architecture shows favorable and promising results.
