Abstract
Executive Summary: Computer system security officials typically have very few, if any
good automated tools to gather and process auditing information on potential computer
system intruduers. It is most challenging to determine just what actions constitute
potential intrusion in a complex mainframe computer environment. Trusted Information
Systems (TIS), Inc. recently completed a survey to determine what auditing tools are
available that will reliably detect intruders on mainframe computer systems. Their
report #348 was done for the Air Force and includes details on nine specific software
tools for intrusion detection.
