Abstract:
In recent years, Cloud Computing had met a rapid development and an increasing popularity that have boosted
the rate of its adoption. Pay for use, low-cost and rapid elasticity are some of advantages provided by Cloud
Computing. However, this technology is facing many security challenges caused basically by the
virtualization feature. Thus, Intrusion Detection is become crucial to secure the cloud environment. In fact,
many security solutions have been proposed to overcome security issues and increase customers’ trust on
Cloud Computing paradigm. After discussing existing Intrusion Detection Systems, deployed for Cloud
Computing, we propose, in this paper, an approach that is based on cooperative and distributed intrusion
detection, where a Cooperative Intrusion Detection approach is deployed for the Cloud Computing
architecture in order to reinforce its security. In the implementation, many DDOS attacks type have been
launched to test the performance of the proposed IDS. Th
e experiment has lead to an effective Cloud IDS
with lower false positive rate.
