One of the emerging issues in the field of digital crime and digital forensics is corporate preparedness in dealing with attacks on computer network security. Security attacks and breaches of an organization’s computer network can result in the compromise of confidential data, loss of customer confidence, poor public relations, disruption of business, and severe financial loss. Furthermore, loss of organizational data can present a number of criminal threats, including extortion, blackmail, identity theft, technology theft, and even hazards to national security. This chapter first examines the preparedness and response of three southwestern companies to their own specific threats to corporate cyber-security. Secondly, this chapter suggests that by developing an effective security policy focusing on incident detection and response, a company can minimize the damage caused by these attacks, while simultaneously strengthening the existing system and forensic processes against future attacks. Advances in digital forensics and its supporting technology, including intrusion detection, intrusion prevention, and application control, will be imperative to maintain network security in the future.

Computer network systems have been designing to share resources. Sharing resources process, data security, and confidentiality are main issues in anticipating misuse of the access to information by unauthorized parties. The solution to anticipating these problems is the availability of a security system capable of handling various intruders who threaten the system and protect network resources. This study builds and analyzes the performance of computer network security using cowrie honeypot and snort inline-mode as an Intrusion Prevention System (IPS). The development process goes through the stages of analysis, design, implementation, and monitoring. The content analysis method has been using to explore the problems and requirements of the system built. The security system was build by configuring the IP address and network system devices (server, remote admin, client attacker). The test has been carrying out on 3 test parameters (confidentiality, availability, and integrity), comparison testing method has been using to test the integrity parameters. The test results indicate that the system functionality test for user needs have fulfilled, the results of the confidentiality test (83.3%), availability (93.3%), and the integrity of the inline-mode snort show faster response time (0.069 seconds on average) and more CPU resource usage efficient (0.04% average) than the cowrie honeypot. IPS snort inline-mode overall integrity parameter testing is more recommended for used network security systems than cowrie honeypots.

We propose several generalized linear models (GLMs) to predict the number of successful cyber intrusions (or “intrusions”) into an organization’s computer network, where the rate at which intrusions occur is a function of the following observable characteristics of the organization: (i) domain name system (DNS) traffic classified by their top-level domains (TLDs); (ii) the number of network security policy violations; and (iii) a set of predictors that we collectively call the “cyber footprint” that is comprised of the number of hosts on the organization’s network, the organization’s similarity to educational institution behavior, and its number of records on scholar.google.com . In addition, we evaluate the number of intrusions to determine whether these events follow a Poisson or negative binomial (NB) probability distribution. We reveal that the NB GLM provides the best fit model for the observed count data, number of intrusions per organization, because the NB model allows the variance of the count data to exceed the mean. We also show that there are restricted and simpler NB regression models that omit selected predictors and improve the goodness-of-fit of the NB GLM for the observed data. With our model simulations, we identify certain TLDs in the DNS traffic as having a significant impact on the number of intrusions. In addition, we use the models and regression results to conclude that the number of network security policy violations is consistently predictive of the number of intrusions.

Cyber security plays an important role to protect our computer, network, program and data from unauthorized access. Intrusion detection system (IDS) and intrusion prevention system (IPS) are two main categories of cyber security, designed to identify any suspicious activities present in inbound and outbound network packets and restrict the suspicious incident. Deep neural network plays a significant role in the construction of IDS and IPS. This paper highlights a novel IDS using optimized convolution neural network (CNN-IDS). An optimized CNNIDS model is an improvement over CNN which selects the best weighted model by considering the loss in every epoch. All the experiments have been conducted on the well known NSL-KDD dataset. Information gain has been used for dimensionality reduction. The accuracy of the proposed model is evaluated through optimized CNN for both binary and multiclass categories. Finally, a critical comparison has been performed with other general classifiers like J48, Naive Bayes, NB tree, Random forest, Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and Convolution Neural Network(CNN). All the experimental results demonstrate that the optimized CNN-IDS model records the best recognition rate with minimum model construction time.
