An architecture for intrusion detection using honey pot

The most common shortcomings in the existing intrusion detection systems (IDSs) are information overload, unknown attacks, false positives and false negatives. We present the design of AAIDHP (an architecture for intrusion detection using honey pot). This approach solves the problems previously mentioned. As a component, the honey pot cooperates with IDS, which increases flexibility, configurability and security of IDS. We also present the definition of the honey pot, the description of this approach and a discussion of design and implementation issues.
