Overview:

Each time an intrusion detection system raises an alert it must make some attempt to communicate the information to an operator. This communication channel can easily become the target of a denial of service attack because, like all communication channels, it has a fixed capacity. If this channel can become overwhelmed with bogus data, an attacker can quickly achieve complete neutralisation of intrusion detection capability. Although these types of attack are very hard to stop completely, the aim is to present techniques that improve alert throughput and capacity to such an extent that the resources required to successfully mount the attack become prohibitive.
