Using a Cluster for Securing Embedded Systems
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 9
Abstract
In today's increasingly interconnected world, the deployment of an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is becoming very important for securing embedded systems from viruses, worms, attacks, etc. But IDSs face many challenges like computational resources and ubiquitous threats. Many of these challenges can be resolved by running the IDS in a cluster to allow tasks to be parallelly executed. In this paper, we propose to secure embedded systems by using a cluster of embedded cards that can run multiple instances of an IDS in a parallel way. This proposition is now possible with the availability of new low-power single-board computers (Raspberry Pi, BeagleBoard, Cubieboard, Galileo, etc.). To test the feasibility of our proposed architecture, we run two instances of the Bro IDS on two Raspberry Pi. The results show that we can effectively run multiple instances of an IDS in a parallel way on a cluster of new low-power single-board computers to secure embedded systems.
