Optimal Aide Security Information Search (OASIS)

Abstract

The purpose of the Optimal AIDE Security Information Search (OASIS) effort was to investigate and prototype a tool that can assist the network security analyst in collecting useful information to defend the networks they manage. The resulting tool allows the collection of threat, vulnerability, and countermeasure data from multiple web sites that are further processed to eliminate duplication. The scope of the work encompasses the design and implementation of a Graphical User Interface (GUI) to control the search and collection of data relating to user-defined topics. This included the integration of a Government Off-The-Shelf (GOTS) tool to perform the actual search. The effort put forth on this project has demonstrated that it is feasible to support network security analysts with an automated tool to quickly collect, view, and act on information that can protect an information system network.
