Helping IDS Adapt to Major Network Transformations
Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are essential elements of network security operations. They are, however, facing significant challenges in terms of scalability, performance and accuracy as traditional network perimeters – and perimeter defenses – disappear and cybersecurity solutions shift to the cloud. In addition, IDS traffic visibility is often hampered by encryption and limited protocol recognition that is lagging behind in the new hybrid IoT/IT, everything-as-a-service world. As cyber attacks become increasingly frequent and sophisticated, effective threat detection depends on a level of visibility that most IDS no longer possess.
IDS-based Threat Detection as a Software Component
The Enea Qosmos Threat Detection SDK (TD SDK) delivers IDS-based threat detection as a software component. This new groundbreaking tool has been developed by Enea to help cybersecurity software developers fully secure today’s redistributed, cloud-centered, work-from-anywhere networks.
The Enea Qosmos TD SDK embeds core functionalities from the industry’s best-in-breed IDS, Suricata, in a software development kit (SDK) that integrates tightly with the industry’s best-in-breed traffic visibility engine, Enea Qosmos ixEngine®. With this integration, double packet processing is eliminated, parsing speed is accelerated, and traffic insights are vastly expanded to fuel next-generation threat detection and custom rule development.

Benefits for Cybersecurity Software Developers
-
Tight Integration into 3rd Party Software
Delivered as a software component (SDK) with an IDS solutions-based approach, Enea Qosmos TD SDK enables easy and tight integration into encompassing cybersecurity solutions while remaining flexible and scalable.
-
Better Performance
Enea Qosmos TD SDK eliminates double packet processing for deep packet inspection (DPI) and IDS, optimizing resources and streamlining overheads. Thanks to Enea Qosmos ixEngine packet acquisition and parsing library, there is much higher native throughput than traditional IDS, resulting in important functional performance gains.
-
Fewer False Negatives
Full traffic visibility, even in encrypted traffic, better parsers and the ability to customize rulesets reduces the number of false negatives and false positives, delivering more accurate and rapid threat detection.
-
Plug & Play Rulesets
Enea Qosmos TD SDK supports standard rulesets with Suricata syntax, facilitating deployment. Enea Qosmos ixEngine metadata is made available in rules syntax further improving threat detection while simplifying integration.
