7 September 2007[pdf] GN2-07-218v2 (DJ2.2.4): Findings of the Advanced Anomaly Detection Pilot (107 Kb)Advanced anomaly detection is the process in which network traffic patterns are continuously and if possible near real-time monitored in order to detect deviations from the ordinary. These deviations usually form a strong first indication that traffic flows on a monitored network are not according to what was to be expected in a normal operational context. By developing sophisticated methods for anomaly detection and deploying these methods in pilot environments, an overall improvement of the security levels of a monitored network can be achieved.
