Title:

A Latency Reduction Technique for Network Intrusion Detection System on Multicores

Abstract:

Network security threats have become a serious problem along with the usage of Internet. An Intrusion Detection System (IDS) detects the attacks to the network by inspecting the packets according to the predefined rules, or signatures. Packet level parallelism is widely used for IDSs on multicores while the latency for processing one packet is still same due to the difficulty of exploiting parallelism from packet matching process. This talk proposes a latency reduction technique of an IDS. The basic idea of the proposed technique is scheduling packet matching signatures as tasks onto cores considering their processing costs. The preliminary evaluations show the speedup of the latency on an Intel Xeon processor by paralellized Suricata, which is one of popular open-source IDSs.
