A Communication Framework for Collaborative Defense

Abstract

The goal of this project has been to implement a collaborative automated signature generation system for deep packet inspection systems. In this report they summarize the results at the conclusion of this project. Briefly, the primary goal of achieving a significant level of automation was successfully achieved, although it proved to be more complex than originally perceived. They have been able to provide sufficient automation to be able to build up the most extensive application signature database in the world with a fraction of their competitors resources. The approach has been tested extensively using real network traffic from internal networks, trial sites, and networks from which they have received confidential network traffic samples.
