The sensor supports three types of signatures: Built-in signatures: known attack signatures that are included in the sensor software Tuned signatures: built-in signatures that you modify Custom signatures: new signatures that you create

IPS v Signature Actions Cisco IDS signatures can take one or all of the following actions when triggered: Drop malicious packets, including the trigger packet, before they reach their targets (for inline sensors only) Produce an alert or an alert that includes an encoded dump of the trigger packet Log IP packets that contain the attacker address, the victim address, or both Initiate the blocking of a connection or a specific host address Send a request to the notification application component of the sensor to perform SNMP notification Terminate the TCP session between the source of an attack and the target host

IPS v Regular Expressions Syntax Features of regular expressions syntax: Enables you to configure your sensor to detect textual patterns in the traffic it analyzes Allows you to describe simple as well as complex textual patterns Consists of special characters such as the following: –() –| –[abc]

Each Cisco IPS signature is controlled by a Signature Engine designed to inspect a specific type of traffic. Each engine has a set of legal parameters that have allowable ranges or sets of values. Configurable engine parameters enable you to tune signatures to work optimally in your network and to create new signatures unique to your network environment.

9 © 2005 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. IPS v Alerts By default, the sensor generates an alert when an enabled signature is triggered. The default setting that generates an alert can be disabled. Alerts are stored in the sensors Event Store. External monitoring applications can pull alerts from the sensor via SDEE. Monitoring applications can collect alerts on an as-needed basis. Multiple hosts can collect alerts simultaneously. Alerts can have any one of the following security levels: –Informational –Low –Medium –High The severity level of the alert is derived from the severity level of the signature causing the alert.

38 © 2005 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. IPS v Summary A signature is a set of rules that your sensor uses to detect typical intrusive activity. The sensor compares network activity with its enabled signatures and can generate an alert when a match is found. A Signature Engine is a component of the sensor that supports a category of signatures. Each Signature Engine is designed for a specific type of traffic. Each engine has a set of parameters that helps define the behavior of the signatures controlled by the engine.

39 © 2005 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. IPS v Summary (Cont.) Parameters can be modified so that signatures meet the needs of your network environment. You can configure your sensor to take the following actions in response to an attack or a suspicious activity: –Deny Attacker Inline –Deny Connection Inline –Deny Packet Inline –Log Attacker Packets –Log Pair Packets –Log Victim Packets –Produce Alert –Produce Verbose Alert –Request Block Connection –Request Block Host –Request SNMP Trap –Reset TCP Connection
