Abstract

This paper expounds the Network Security issues which are becoming important as increasing demand of good quality communication. We are moving to digital information age so Information security is one of the critical component in ensuring secure communication and transaction i.e. m-commerce over the internet. There are various methods available and in use to provide security some of them are based on intrusion detection system (IDS) or authentication based methods i.e. passwords, biometric authentication. One of the most popular ways of ensuring security in the network is authentication. This paper analyse the various authentication techniques such as Token-based and Biometric-based and Knowledge-based and also gives a description of the architecture of Snort rule set which is a very popular digital signature and Intrusion Detection system on anomaly based. Furthermore, we also discuss the advantages of FPGA devices which are used in intrusion detection system implementation.
