node and mobile device for a mobile telecommunications network providing intrusion detection/prevention

摘要

A mobile device (355) operable in a mobile telecommunications network (300) comprising a memory module (274 figure 5) for storing data in machine readable format for retrieval and execution by a central processing unit (272 figure 5) and an operating system (275 figure 5) operable to execute an intrusion detection application (91 figure 4) stored in the memory module (274 figure 5) is provided. A node (85 figure 2) of a network (300) for managing an intrusion detection system comprising a memory module (274 figure 5) for storing data in machine readable format for retrieval and execution by a central processing unit (272 figure 5) and an operating system (275 figure 5) comprising a network stack (90 figure 3) comprising a protocol driver (135 figure 3) and a media access (145 figure 3) control driver and operable to execute an intrusion protection system management application (279 figure 5), the management application (279 figure 5) operable to receive text-file input (277A-277N figure 5) defining a network-exploit rule and convert the text-file (277A-277N figure 5) input into a signature file (281A-281N figure 5) comprising machine-readable logic representative of an exploit-signature, the node (85 figure 2) operable to transmit the signature file (281A-281N figure 5) to a mobile device (355) over a radio frequency link is provided.
