Classification of the Intrusion Tolerant Systems and Integrated Framework for Survivability Enhancement

Currently security researchers focus on protection of program and data from malicious users and accidents. Therefore, many firewalls and intrusion detection systems have been developed commercially. The intrusion tolerance is a new concept that is the last line of defense for the information survivability. It emphasizes availability and integrity to provide critical system services continuously even when system is compromised. In this paper, we classify current intrusion tolerant technologies from the point of view of program and data. Furthermore, we propose an integrated framework that supports intrusion tolerance of program and data.
