Abstract :
The finalization of the 100 Gbps Ethernet Specification has been a tremendous increase in these rates arriving into data centers creating the need to perform security monitoring at 100 Gbps no longer simply an academic exercise. We show that by leveraging the ´heavy tail flow effect´ on the IDS infrastructure, it is possible to perform security analysis at such speeds within the HPC environment. Additionally, we examine the nature of current traffic characteristics, how to scale an IDS infrastructure to 100Gbps.
