BS ISO/IEC TR 15947:2002 defines a framework for detection of intrusions in IT systems. Many classes of intrusions are considered. These include intrusions that are intentional or unintentional, legal or illegal, harmful or harmless, and unauthorized access by insiders or outsiders.
BS ISO/IEC TR 15947:2002 focuses on:
- establishing common definitions for terms and concepts associated with an IT intrusion detection framework
- describing a generic model of intrusion detection
- providing high level examples of attempts to exploit systems vulnerabilities
- discussing common types of input data and the sources needed for an effective intrusion detection capability
- discussing different methods and combinations of methods of intrusion detection analysis
- describing activities/actions in response to indications of intrusions.
The framework explains intrusion detection terms and concepts, and describes the relationship among them. Further, it addresses possible ordering of intrusion detection tasks and related activities.
BS ISO/IEC TR 15947:2002 provides the basis for a common understanding of intrusion detection and aims to assist IT managers to deploy within their organizations Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) that interact and work together.
