Abstract:
With Cloud and Internet among the essential pillars on which the world resides in this era. With the increasing advancements in technology, network speed and a need of greater, more reliable and feasible processing power, the dependency on these pillars is continuously growing, with growing concerns to security and privacy of the data. The former also stresses the need for faster servers and response time. With intrusions getting complex simple intrusion detection methods and, moreover, exclusive IDS are not an option anymore, there is a serious need of much more sophisticated methods; resulting in bulkier IDSs. The trade-off between resource utilisation & response time and security attracted a lot of researchers in recent years. The present scenario needs a resource-friendly IDS with no compromise with security, delivering good response time.
