Poseidon: a 2-tier Anomaly-based Intrusion Detection System
Damiano Bolzoni, Emmanuele Zambon, Sandro Etalle, Pieter Hartel

TL;DR
Poseidon is a novel two-tier anomaly-based intrusion detection system combining Self-Organizing Maps and a modified PAYL, demonstrating improved detection rates and fewer false positives on benchmark data.
Contribution
It introduces a new payload-based IDS architecture with a two-tier design, enhancing detection performance over existing systems.
Findings
Higher detection rate than PAYL and PHAD
Lower false positive rate
Effective on DARPA benchmark dataset
Abstract
We present Poseidon, a new anomaly based intrusion detection system. Poseidon is payload-based, and presents a two-tier architecture: the first stage consists of a Self-Organizing Map, while the second one is a modified PAYL system. Our benchmarks on the 1999 DARPA data set show a higher detection rate and lower number of false positives than PAYL and PHAD.
