An Implementation of CuPIDS: Evaluating the Effectiveness of Multi-Processor Information System Security

Abstract

The Co-Processing Intrusion Detection System (CuPiDS) project explores practical improvements in information system security and survivability through dedicating computational resources to system security tasks in a shared resource, multi-processor (MP) architecture. Our research explores ways in which this architecture offers improvements over the traditional uni-processor (UP) model of security. This paper describes the details of an implementation of such a system. This prototype is used to validate our research theses and explore some of the performance benefits and trade-offs of dedicating computational resources to computational tasks as well as the cost of creating and using such a system.
