TOWARDS RUN-TIME PROTOCOL ANOMALY DETECTION AND VERIFICATION

Inseon Yoo, Ulrich Ultes-nitsche

2004

Abstract

`How to verify incoming packets whether they follow standards or not?' and `How to detect protocol anomalies in real-time?', we seek to answer these questions. In order to solve these questions, we have designed a packet verifier with packet inspection and sanity check. In this work, we specify TCP transaction behaviours declaratively in a high-level language called Specification and Description Language (SDL). This specification will be then compiled into an inspection engine program for oberving packets. In addition, the SanityChecker covers protocol header anomalies.
