Firewalls anomalies’ detection system based on web services / mobile agents interactions

Abstract

Firewalls are core elements in network security. However, detecting anomalies, particularly in distributed firewalls has become a complex task. Mobile agents promise an interesting approach for communications between different distributed systems specially Web services applications. In this work, we propose a firewall anomaliespsila detection system based on interactions between the Web services and the mobile agents technologies. Then, we highlight the trumps of this approach compared to the client/server model.
