As a follow-up to Fred Cohen's announcement/request for information posted
on September 17, the public draft of the Intrusion Detection baseline is
available for review and comment. The comment period will run through
November 27, at which time we will update the document with the comments we
consider relevant and useful.
The document is on-line at <http://doe-is.llnl.gov/nitb/ids.html>. Please
send your comments to <spcooper@llnl.gov>. Also, comments on the other Web
pages at <http://doe-is.llnl.gov/nitb/> are welcome, especially if they
help build up the section on "Other INFOSEC-Related Items of Interest."
Fred Cohen's original announcement is duplicated below. Special thanks go
to all of you who contributed to the draft document.

*************
The NITB provides the state of the national technical capability in critical
InfoSec areas. The purpose of the NITB is to focus the attention of the
research community on topics of interest and on the most difficult and
challenging problems in need of furhter scientific explanation. The findings
of these NITB are collected in the national repository of InfoSec
information which will be used to guide further research investment.
The national laboratories have been chosen for this work because of their
high technical standards, their independence from product, institution, and
technology slants, and their ongoing role as fair brokers. The labs now
participating include:
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
Sandia National Laboratory
Los Alamos National Laboratory
The NITB effort has just started, and our first area of concentration is on
intrusion detection and response. This posting is a request for information
from the Internet community on the state-of-the-art in intrusion detection
and response.
What we are looking for:
We are looking for professional-quality articles, lists of products
and their features, bibliographies, etc.
What we are NOT looking for:
Sales information, information already available via the IDS mailing
list and other similar sources, etc.
We are currently working on a report which will be made widely available in
draft form within the next few weeks and will be announced on this forum. At
that time, we will solicit comments on the report for a very brief time and
will update the report with information we believe to be useful. Within a
few weeks of that time, we will provide a current report and make that
report
available for all to see.
Please send your relevant information to:
fbcohen@ca.sandia.gov
Thank you for your time.
