State of the Art in CyberSecurity Monitoring: A Supplement

Abstract

This paper is a supplement to the author's report, "State of the Art in Cybersecurity Monitoring" (Sep 2000), and depends heavily on its companion paper, "CyberSecurity Monitoring Tools and Projects: A Compendium of Commercial and Government Tools and Not-For-Profit Research Projects" (Aug 2001). Both of these referenced papers are revisions of the original 1999 publications. In September 2000, he issued an update to the state of the art paper. The update took a new look at the commercial marketplace, based on the latest cybersecurity monitoring compendium published in August 2000, to discern any trends and identify new kinds of products. Some new research and development initiatives were identified. Finally, the update offered commentary on the relationship between the commercial sector and MITRE's military sponsors and what the state of affairs might augur. This supplement neither incrementally extends the referenced update nor replaces it. Rather, it takes an independent look at the commercial products in the cybersecurity monitoring area and speculates on what the findings may mean to MITRE's military sponsors. The appendix presents a summary of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) cybersecurity monitoring products in tabular form. The information includes name of tool, type of tool, when it was released, and commercial vendor.
