ABSTRACT

This paper presents the intrusion detection and vulnerability scanning capabilities that the authors consider necessary for the U.S. Air Force network. These capabilities are described as
requirements for the Network Monitoring and Assessment (NMA) module of the Computer Security Assistance Program for the Twenty-First Century (CSAP21) architecture. The advantage of this approach is that it provides a global and comprehensive context in which to describe intrusion detection system (IDS) requirements. We have adapted and organized requirements derived from a number of sources, including intrusion monitoring practit ioners.
