USER REQUIREMENTS WEIGHT BASED APPROACH TO IDS SELECTION FOR WLAN

Abstract

A variety of featured packed Wireless Intrusion Detection System (WIDS) products are available in the market. They include commercial as well as open source products. It is for user to decide which will be the best WIDS solution for their network. There is never one solution that works for everything so user has to compare the capabilities of each along with budget, knowledge and needs to find one that works best for them. This paper provides a user requirements weight based approach to IDS selection for WLAN. In this approach first all possible user WIDS requirements and WIDS metrics are listed, then for each WIDS requirement we find the concern metric(s). User lists their WIDS requirements in a partial ordering from least important to most. Requirements are usually stated in positive form or converted to the positive form. Next, the first requirement (i.e. least important) is assigned the lowest weight (e.g., one). Other requirements may be assigned increasing weights in proportion to their relative importance. Once the requirements are weighted, each WIDS metric is assigned a weight that is equal to the sum of the weights of the requirements it contributes to. WIDS metrics are arranged in descending order where metric with the highest weight is at the top. Appropriate WIDS tool may be selected after matching the metrics weight and WIDS features. In the end of the paper we discuss scope for the future work in this area.
