Gathering Evidence from an IDS

Gathering Evidence from an IDS in this the monitoring network traffic is of prime importance. Organizations install IDSes to monitor intrusions. To capture network traffic, first configure the IDS. However, this is not sufficient as a source of evidence, because the 1DS is incapable of performing integrity checks on log files. In a network investigation, preserving digital evidence is difficult, as the data displayed on screen will remain only for few seconds. The Windows HyperTerminal …

Investigation of Network Traffic

Investigation of Network Traffic in this Network forensics are often defined as sniffing, recording, acquisition, and analysis of the network traffic and event logs so as to research a network security incident. It allows investigator to examine network traffic and logs to spot and locate the attacking system. Devices connected to network still proliferate; computers, smartphones, tablets etc. because the number of attacks against networked systems grow, the importance of network forensics has increased and …

Understand the Importance of Network Forensics

Understand the Importance of Network Forensics in this this article Network Forensics is the implementation of sniffing, recording, acquisition, and analysis of network traffic and event logs to investigate a network security incident. Capturing network traffic over a network is simple in theory, but relatively complex in practice due to many inherent reasons such as the large amount of data flow and complex nature of Internet protocols. Recording network traffic involves a lot of resources. …
