The breakthrough in computer and network has facilitated a variety of information exchange. However, at the same time, malicious users and groups are attacking vulnerable systems. Intrusion Detection System(IDS) detects malicious behaviors through network packet analysis. However, it has a burden of processing a large amount of packets in a short time. Therefore, in order to solve these problem, we propose a network intrusion detection system that operates at kernel level to improve detection performance at user level. In fact, we confirmed that the network intrusion detection system implemented at kernel level improves packet analysis and detection performance.

본 논문에서는 네트워크 기반 분산 침입탐지 시스템을 위한 커널 수준 침입탐지 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 탐지분석으로 침입탐지 과정을 분리하고 침입탐지 규칙 생성 요구에 대한 침입탐지 자료구조로의 변환을 사용자 응용 프로그램 수준에서 수행하며 생성된 자료구조의 포인터 연결을 커널 수준에서 수행한다. 침입탐지 규칙 변경은 노드를 삭제하지 않고 삭제표시만 수행하고 새로운 노드를 추가하는 삭제마크 띤 노드추가 방식 통하여 수행한다 제안하는 기법은 탐지과정의 분리를 통해 분산 네트워크 환경에 효율적으로 적용할 수 있으며 커널기반 침입탐지 방식을 사용하여 사용자 응용 프로그램으로 동작하는 에이전트기반의 침입탐지 기법에 비해 탐지속도가 빠르다. 침입탐지 규칙 변경은 삭제마크 및 노드추가 방식을 통해서 규칙변경과 침입탐지를 동시에 수행하기 위한 커널의 부하를 줄일 수 있다. 이를 통해 다양한 네트워크 공격에 대하여 신속하게 대응할 수 있다. 그러므로, 서비스거부 공격과 같이 네트워크 과부하가 발생하는 환경에서도 신속한 침입탐지와 탐지효율을 증가시킬 수 있다는 장점을 가진다.

본 논문에서는 커널수준의 침입탐지를 위한 동적 침입탐지 규칙 변경 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 침입탐지 규칙은 규칙타입 프로토콜 타입, 패킷 헤더와 패킷 페이로드에 대한 검사를 수행하기 위한 규칙들로 세분화하여 LVR로 표현하고 이들 LVR이 계층적으로 구성된 IDRL로 관리한다. 침입탐지는 IDRL을 이용하여 수행하며, 규칙에 대한 변경은 변경된 규칙에 대한 LVR을 구성하고 LV를 이용한 포인터 변경을 이용하여 IDRL에 반영하는 방법이다. 제안하는 기법은 IDRL을 이용한 침입탐지와 탐지규칙의 변경을 IDRL에 최소한의 비용으로 수행하고, LVR을 이용하여 침입탐지 규칙을 디스크와 메모리에 동일한 형태로 저장 및 관리하여 탐지규칙 초기화 비용과 변경 비용을 최소화할 수 있다. 이를 통하여 보다 안전한 커널 수준에서의 네트워크 보안을 위한 효율적인 동적 침입탐지 규칙 변경을 지원할 수 있다는 장점을 가진다.

This paper presents a secure Linux OS in which multi-level security functions are implemented at the kernel level. Current security efforts such as firewall or intrusion detection system provided in application-space without security features of the secure OS suffer from many vulnerabilities. However the development of the secure OS in Korea lies in just an initial state, and NSA has implemented a prototype of the secure Linux but published just some parts of the technologies. Thus our commercialized secure Linux OS with multi-level security kernel functions meets the minimum requirements for TCSEC B1 level as well kernel-mode encryption, real-time audit trail with DB, and restricted use of root privileges.

Current security efforts provided in such as firewall or IDS (intrusion detection system) of the network level suffer from many vulnerabilities in internal computing servers. Thus the necessity of secure OS is especially crucial in today's computing environment. This paper identifies secure OS requirements, analyzes tile research trends for secure Linux in terms of security kernel, and provides the descriptions of the multi-level security(MLS) Linux kernel which we have implemented. This security kernel-based Linux meets the minimum requirements for TCSEC Bl class as well providing anti-hacking, real-time audit trailing, restricting of root privileges, and enterprise suity management functions.

Recently, with the rapid development of android-based smartphones, it is becomes a major security issue that the case of Android platform is an open platform. so it is easy to be a target of mobile virus penetration and hacking. Even there are a variety of security mechanisms to prevent the vulnerable points of the Android platform but the reason of most of the security mechanisms were designed at application-level that highly vulnerable to the attacks directly to the operating system or attacks using the disadvantages of an application's. It is necessary that the complementary of the android platform kernel blocks the kernel vulnerability and the application vulnerability. In this paper, we proposed a secure system using linux-based android kernel applied to LIDS(Linux Intrusion Detection and Defense System) and applied a smart phone with s5pc110 chip. As a result, the unauthorized alteration of the application was prevented with a proposed secure system.

A current firewall or IDS (intrusion detection system) of the network level suffers from many vulnerabilities in internal computing servers. For a secure Linux implementation using system call hooking, this paper defines two requirements such as the multi-level security function of TCSEC B1 and a prevention of hacking attacks. This paper evaluates the secure Linux implemented in terms of the mandatory access control, anti-hacking and performance overhead, and thus shows the security, stability and availability of the multi-level secure Linux. At the kernel level this system protects various hacking attacks such as using Setuid programs, inserting back-door and via-attacks. The performance degradation is an average 1.18% less than other secure OS product.

Internet is exposed to network attacks as Internet has a security weakness. Network attacks which are virus, system intrusion, and deny of service, put Internet in the risk of hacking, so the damage of public organization and banking facilities are more increased. So, it is necessary that the security technologies about intrusion detection and controlling attacks minimize the damage of hacking. Router is the network device of managing traffic between Internets or Intranets. The damage of router attack causes the problem of the entire network. The security technology about router is necessary to defend Internet against network attacks. Router has the need of access control and security skills that prevent from illegal attacks. We developed integrated security management framework for secure networking and kernel-level security engine that filters the network packets, detects the network intrusion, and reports the network intrusion. The security engine on the router protects router or gateway from the network attacks and provides secure networking environments. It manages the network with security policy and handles the network attacks dynamically.

In general, operating system is offering the security function of OS level to support several web services. However, it is true that security side of OS level is weak from many parts. Specially, it is needed to audit/trace function in security kernel level to satisfy security more than B2 level that define in TCSEC(Trusted Computer System Evaluation Criteria). So we need to create audit data at system call invocation for this, and do to create audit data of equal format about almost event and supply information to do traceback late. This Paper Proposes audit/trace system module that use LKM(Loadable Kernel Module) technique. It is applicable without alteration about existing linux kernel to ensure safe evidence. It offers interface that can utilize external audit data such as intrusion detection system, and also offers safe role based system that is divided system administrator and security administrator These data will going to utilize to computer forensics' data that legal confrontation is Possible.

Currently most of commercial operating systems contain a high-level audit feature to increase their own security level. Linux does not fall behind the other commercial operating systems in performance and stability, but Linux does not have a good audit feature. Linux is required to support a higher security feature than C2 level of the TCSEC in order to be used as a server operating system, which requires the kernel-level audit feature that provides the system call auditing feature and audit event. In this paper, we present LxBSM, which is a kernel module to provide the kernel-level audit features. The audit record format of LxBSM is compatible with that of Sunshield BSM. The LxBSM is implemented as a loadable kernel module, so it has the enhanced usability. It provides the rich audit records including the user-level audit events such as login/logout. It supports both the pipe and file interface for increasing the connectivity between LxBSM and intrusion detection systems (IDS). The performance of LxBSM is compared and evaluated with that of Linux kernel without the audit features. The response time was increased when the system calls were called to create the audit data, such as fork, execve, open, and close. However any other performance degradation was not observed.
