Signature-based network intrusion detection systems (NIDSs) have been widely deployed in current network security infrastructure. However, these detection systems suffer from some limitations such as network packet overload, expensive signature matching and massive false alarms in a large-scale network environment. In this paper, we aim to develop an enhanced filter mechanism (named EFM) to comprehensively mitigate these issues, which consists of three major components: a context-aware blacklist-based packet filter, an exclusive signature matching component and a KNN-based false alarm filter. The experiments, which were conducted with two data sets and in a network environment, demonstrate that our proposed EFM can overall enhance the performance of a signature-based NIDS such as Snort in the aspects of packet filtration, signature matching improvement and false alarm reduction without affecting network security.
