Every computer on the Internet nowadays is a potential target for a new attack at any moment. The pervasive use of signature-based anti-virus scanners and misuse detection Intrusion Detection Systems have failed to provide adequate protection against a constant barrage of "zero-day" attacks. Such attacks may cause denial-of-service, system crashes, or information theft resulting in the loss of critical information. In this thesis, we consider the problem of detecting these "zero-day" intrusions quickly and accurately upon their very first appearance.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Every computer on the Internet nowadays is a potential target for a new attack at any moment. The pervasive use of signature-based anti-virus scanners and misuse detection Intrusion Detection Systems have failed to provide adequate protection against a constant barrage of "zero-day" attacks. Such attacks may cause denial-of-service, system crashes, or information theft resulting in the loss of critical information. In this thesis, we consider the problem of detecting these "zero-day" intrusions quickly and accurately upon their very first appearance.
520 $a Most current Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS) use simple features, like packet headers and derived statistics describing connections and sessions (packet rates, bytes transferred, etc.) to detect unusual events that indicate a system is likely under attack. These approaches, however, are blind to the content of the packet stream, and in particular, the packet content delivered to a service that contains the data and code that exploits the vulnerable application software. We conjecture that fast and efficient detectors that focus on network packet content anomaly detection will improve defenses and identify zero-day attacks far more accurately than approaches that consider only header information.
520 $a We therefore present two payload-based anomaly detectors, PAYL and Anagram, for intrusion detection. They are designed to detect attacks that are otherwise normal connections except that the packets carry bad (anomalous) content indicative of a new exploit. These payload-based anomaly sensors can augment other sensors and enrich the view of network traffic to detect malicious events. Both PAYL and Anagram create models of site-specific normal network application payload as n-grams in a fully automatic, unsupervised and very efficient fashion. PAYL computes, during a training phase, a profile of byte (1-gram ) frequency distribution and their standard deviation of the application payload flowing to a single host and port. PAYL produces a very fine-grained model that is conditioned on payload length. Anagram models high-order n-grams (n > 1) which capture the sequential information between bytes. We experimentally demonstrate that both of these sensors are capable of detecting new attacks with high accuracy and low false positive rates. Furthermore, in order to detect the very early onset of a worm attack, we designed an ingress/egress correlation function that is built in the sensors to quickly identify the worms' initial propagation. The sensors are also designed to generate robust signatures of validated malicious packet content. The technique does not depend upon the detection of probing or scanning behavior or the prevalence of common probe payload, so it is especially useful for the detection of slow and stealthy worms.
520 $a An often-cited weakness of anomaly detection systems is that they suffer from "mimicry attack": clever adversaries may craft attacks that appear normal to an anomaly detector and hence will go unnoticed as a false negative. A mimicry attack against a site defended by a content-based anomaly detector can be executed by an attacker by sniffing the target site's traffic flow, modeling the byte distributions of that flow, and blending their exploit with "normal" appearing byte padding. To defend against such attacks, we further propose the techniques of randomized modeling and randomized testing. Under randomized modeling/testing, each sensor will randomly partition the payload into several subsequences, each of whom are modeled/tested separately, thus building a "model/test diversity" on each host that is unknown to the mimicry attacker. This raises the bar for the attackers as they have no means to know how and where to pad the exploit code to appear normal within each randomly computed partition, even if they have the global knowledge of the target site's content flow.
520 $a Finally, PAYL/Anagram's speed and high detection rate makes it valuable not only as a stand-alone network-based sensor, but also as a host-based data-flow classifier in an instrumented, fault-tolerant host-based environment; this enables significant cost amortization and the possibility of a "symbiotic" feedback loop that can improve accuracy and reduce false positive rates over time.
520 $a Besides building stand-alone anomaly sensors, we also demonstrate a collaborative security strategy whereby different hosts may exchange payload alerts to increase the accuracy of the local sensor and reduce false positives. We propose and examine several new approaches to enable the sharing of suspicious payloads via privacy-preserving technologies. We detail the work we have done with our PAYL and Anagram, to support generalized payload correlation and signature generation without releasing identifiable payload data. The important principle demonstrated is that correlation of multiple alerts can identify true positives from the set of anomaly alerts, reducing incorrect decisions and producing accurate mitigation against zero-day attacks.
520 $a A new wave of cleverly crafted polymorphic attacks has substantially complicated the task of automatically generating "string-based" signatures to filter newly discovered zero-day attacks. Although the payload anomaly detection techniques we present are able to detect these attacks, correlating the individual packet content delivering distinct instances of the same polymorphic attack are shown to have limited value, requiring new approaches for generating robust signatures.
