The Internet is changing computing more than ever before. As the possibilities and the scopes are limitless, so too are the risks and chances of malicious intrusions. Due to the increased connectivity and the vast spectrum of financial possibilities, more and more systems are subject to attack by intruders. One of the commonly used method for intrusion detection is based on anomaly. Network based attacks may occur at various levels, from application to link levels. So the number of potential attackers or intruders are extremely large and thus it is almost impossible to "profile" entities and detect intrusions based on anomalies in host-based profiles.

To reduce the effect of probably insignificant alerts a threshold technique is used.
