Network Security: Software IDPS versus Embedded IDPS

Abstract This paper deals with the issue of computer security, which aims to find out which system will provide us the best response time to an intrusion attack. To do this we developed three systems: The first is an application developed with C ++ making the role of an IDPS exploiting the PCAP library. The second is a Python script embedded in a Yun Arduino board and doing the role of an IDS by exploiting RAW socket. The third system is an android application that generates targeted intrusion attacks.
