Paper Accepted ‘Oblivious Intrusion Detection System’
Our recent paper, Mahmoud A. Sayed and Mostafa Taha `Oblivious Intrusion Detection System,’ was accepted in the IEEE International Symposium on Hardware Oriented Security and Trust – HOST 2022 (Acceptance rate 25\%, Peer-reviewed), Washington DC, USA, 2022.
Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) are capable of monitoring network traffic and matching it against rules. Oblivious IDSs perform the same tasks of IDSs while using encrypted rules and producing encrypted results without being able to decrypt the rules or the results. Current implementations to this technology suffer from slow searching speeds and/or lack of generality. In this paper we present a generic approach to implement privacy-preserving intrusion detection system based on hybrid binary gates along with an application algorithm for hybrid text matching. Benchmarking showed a wide variety of trade-offs with minimum searching time of 897 msecs for 1-byte encrypted rule through 10-bytes plaintext.
