A pattern matching engine supports high speed (up to at least 2.4. Gbits per second line rate
speeds) parallel pattern matching operations in an unanchored fashion. The engine is …

A system and method detects malware on client devices based on partially distributed
malware definitions from a central server. A server stores malware definitions for known …

The invention provides a method and apparatus for advanced network intrusion detection.
The system uses deep packet inspection that can recognize languages described by context …

In this paper, we consider hardware-based scanning and analyzing packets payload in
order to detect hazardous contents. We present two pattern matching techniques to compare …

It has been estimated that computer network worms and virus caused the loss of over $55 B
in 2003. Network security system use techniques such as deep packet inspection to detect …

In this paper, we consider scanning and analyzing packets in order to detect hazardous
contents using pattern matching. We introduce a hardware perfect-hashing technique to …

Due to increasing number of network worms and virus, many computer network users are
vulnerable to attacks. Unless network security systems use more advanced methods of …

In this paper we propose the combination of hashing and use of memory to achieve low cost,
exact matching of SNORT-like intrusion signatures. The basic idea is to use hashing to …

Intrusion detection and prevention systems have become essential to the protection of
critical networks across the Internet. Widely deployed IDS and IPS systems are based …

Pattern matching is one of critical parts of Network Intrusion Prevention Systems (NIPS).
Pattern matching hardware for NIPS should find a matching pattern at wire speed. However …
