Abstract
Intelligent agents – as a modern AI concept – are now widely deployed in various software systems. Performance evaluation techniques for these systems are still in their early stage especially in intrusion detection systems. We are convinced that the most important factors to measure the performance of a given IDS are the risk time and the detection time. This paper provides a set of results achieved when testing an agent-based implementation for intrusion detection. It clarifies methods and procedures to be carried out when testing similar systems. A simple IDS that detects only three types of attacks is tested and the results are reported based on the type of attack. The paper is a step towards a complete strategy in the evaluation of agent-based security systems.
