Feinstein Status: Experimental Date: March 2007 Mailbox: herve.debar@orange-ftgroup.com, david_a_curry@glic.com, feinstein@acm.org Pages: 157 Characters: 307966 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-idwg-idmef-xml-16.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4765.txt The purpose of the Intrusion Detection Message Exchange Format (IDMEF) is to define data formats and exchange procedures for sharing information of interest to intrusion detection and response systems and to the management systems that may need to interact with them. This document describes a data model to represent information exported by intrusion detection systems and explains the rationale for using this model. An implementation of the data model in the Extensible Markup Language (XML) is presented, an XML Document Type Definition is developed, and examples are provided.
