Now-a-days all the major business activities of an enterprise are driven by complex networks. Despite the fact that diversified networking technologies are implemented, the networks have become leaky. Also hackers, displeased employees, unethical firms and terrorist organizations are influencing networks and trying to penetrate into the enterprise network to gather sensitive information. Hence networks are becoming more vulnerable and as a result attacks on networks are intensifying. Although firewalls and routers are deployed, they are self deficient. Intrusion detection systems monitor and inspect the packets traversing over a network ensuring deep packet analysis. But as the attacks are becoming more and more sophisticated, IDS available today are unable to address challenges that surround different types of attacks, since they are designed to handle specific types of attacks only. It is evident that no single technique can guarantee protection against future attacks. Hence there is a need for integrated architecture which can provide robust protection against a complete spectrum of threats. In this paper, we propose our architecture and service oriented modeling based on the service oriented paradigm for building intrusion detection systems.
