The system must have a host-based intrusion detection tool installed.


Overview

Finding ID Version Rule ID IA Controls Severity
V-782 GEN006480 SV-35141r1_rule ECID-1 Medium
Description
Without a host-based intrusion detection tool, there is no system-level defense when an intruder gains access to a system or network. Additionally, a host-based intrusion detection tool can provide methods to immediately lock out detected intrusion attempts.

A few applications providing host-based network intrusion protection are:

- Dragon Squire by Enterasys Networks
- ITA by Symantec
- Hostsentry by Psionic Software
- Logcheck by Psionic Software
- RealSecure agent by ISS
- Swatch by Stanford University

Ask the SA or IAO if a host-based intrusion detection application is loaded on the system (where is the name of the primary application daemon) to determine if the application is loaded on the system.

# find / -name | xargs -n1 ls -lL

Determine if the application is active on the system.
# ps -ef | grep

If no host-based intrusion detection system is installed on the system, this is a finding.
