While there are many ways to evade Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs), there are equally as many ways to detect attacks that use evasion techniques. For IDS technology to be truly effective, they must attempt to detect all attacks and mitigate evasion. Clearly, this gives attackers the upper hand. This paper is intended to inform organizations about the strengths and weaknesses inherent in IDSs. IDSs are useful tools, but they have limitations. By using IDS technology, it is easier to track what happens within a network. However, information provided solely by IDSs may not be sufficient enough to thoroughly protect the network. Sometimes the wire will be quiet during an attack, other times it will be noisy.
