| contents | Sophisticated cyber attacks present significant challenges for organizations in detecting and preventing such threats. To address this critical need for advanced defense mechanisms, we propose an Ensemble Defense System (EDS). An EDS is a cybersecurity framework aggregating multiple security tools designed to monitor and alert an organization during cyber attacks. The proposed EDS leverages a comprehensive range of Intrusion Detection System (IDS) capabilities by introducing a hybrid of signature-based IDS and anomaly-based IDS tools. It also incorporates Elasticsearch, an open-source Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) tool, to facilitate data analysis and interactive visualization of alerts generated from IDSs. The effectiveness of the EDS is evaluated through a payload from a bash script that executes various attacks, including port scanning, privilege escalation, and Denial-of-Service (DoS). The evaluation demonstrates the EDS's ability to detect diverse cyber attacks. |
