IDS: RE: Evaluation/Reviews of COTS and GOTS products (open source too)

RE: Evaluation/Reviews of COTS and GOTS products (open source too)

Check out this document from NIST.

NIST
IR 7007 "An Overview of Issues in Testing Intrusion Detection Systems",
June 2003

http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/nistir/nistir-7007.pdf

They compare a bunch of different evaluations. Here is a text cut from
the PDF listing them...

MITRE 1997
UC Davis 1997
MIT/LL 1998
MIT/LL 1999
AFRL 1998
Neohapsis 2001
NSS 2001
Network World 2001

If you are looking for a way to perform your own evaluation, I wrote
this document in 1998.

This page from Deborah Frinke at U of Idaho CS is pretty good.

Good luck!

> - Evaluation by NSS (http://www.nss.co.uk)
> - Neohapsis OSEC
> - Network Computing's 2001 Study (which favored Dragon)
> - 2002 Information Security Excellence Winners
> - Various reviews by SC Magazine in the "testcenter" section
