Big Data Security Analysis in Network Intrusion Detection System

“…There must be some kind of rules to manage all this traffic and data, thus arising the use of big data security analysis (Dewa A., 2016) Any illegal activity or an act carried with the help of any computer technology device or network is considered as a cybercrime and violation of act of privacy and intrusion. There are many ways and classes of cybercrime which are also considered as terrorism such as try to attempt to authenticate access or pass any service or business network in an illegitimate manner (Moustafa, Creech, & Slay, 2017a) A number of solutions were presented and adopted after the increase in cybercrime and internet terrorism because it affected a great number of organizations all over the globe. Its solutions are first line security measures which are Firewall (A trusted network system designed especially for security purposes which monitors the traffic of any network upon basis of predetermined rules and regulations) , Cryptography (use of different coding techniques for data communication security in the presence of adversaries or third parties) and second-line security solution is the use of intrusion detection system (IDS) which is basically a software developed application or a computer-controlled device that continuously 24/7 monitors the whole system of an organization or a network for any kind of illegal intrusion, act, access, violation of companies policies authorization or malicious activity(Ata, 2017)Upon detection of the above mentioned the IDS acts immediately and effectively informing and alarming the client, administrator in control at the same time by its event management system known as SIEM.…”
