PADS is a signature based detection engine used to passively detect
|
||
|
|
network assets. It is designed to complement IDS technology by
|
||
|
|
providing context to IDS alerts.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Goals:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Passive: Records and identifies traffic seen on a network without
|
||
|
|
actively "scanning" a system. There will never be a packet sent
|
||
|
|
from the pads applications.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Portable: Has the ability to be placed easily on a remote system.
|
||
|
|
Does not require additional external libraries other than those
|
||
|
|
associated with libpcap.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Lightweight: Logging is sent to a simple CSV file. There is no need
|
||
|
|
for a database or other data repository installed on the local
|
||
|
|
machine. All correlation is done outside of the pads program.
