IDPS-ESCAPE, short for Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems for Evading Supply Chain Attacks and Post-compromise Effects, focuses on developing a sophisticated Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system tailored for cloud-edge networks. This solution includes agents capable of seamless installation on systems earmarked for monitoring, along with a cutting-edge Intrusion Detection and Prevention System (IDPS) infused with machine learning capabilities.
This folder explains the integration of Suricata, an open-source Intrusion Detection System (IDS) renowned for its robust network security capabilities, and Wazuh, a cybersecurity platform that integrates SIEM and XDR capabilities, which play a crucial role in enhancing the capabilities of the IDPS-ESCAPE solution and are the building blocks for the IDPS-ESCAPE prototype.
A complete and installation of the signature-based intrusion detection subsystem and SIEM of IDPS-ESCAPE comprise of the following steps
-
Suricata, to enable network monitoring capabilities:
-
Wazuh central components installation, for SIEM&XDR:
a. installation in containerized environment of Dashboard, Manager and Indexer
-
Installation Wazuh agent to enable host monitoring capabilities.
-
Possibly, deployment of additional agents on other remote hosts (system endpoints). Same as 3.
-
Possibly, enable remote traffic monitoring.
The procedure above describes the full deployment. Lighter options are possible, but we advice to deploy all the subsystems to achieve full potential.
