“…Intelligent agents and multi-agent systems are among the most rapidly growing areas of research and development. Vulnerability assessment and intrusion detection based on agent approach are discussed in (Cardoso & Freire, 2005). Multi-agent framework design and implementation issues for the autonomous database administration system and security are described in (Ramanujan & Capretez, 2005).…”

“…They need systems that support optimal allocation of limited security resources on the basis of predicted risk rather than perceived vulnerabilities. However, the security infrastructure of most organizations came about through necessity rather than planning, a reactive-based approach such as detection of vulnerabilities and applying software updates (Cardoso & Freire, 2005) as opposed to a proactive approach (Gordon, Loeb & Lucyshyn, 2003). On the other hand, cyber security plans call for more specific requirements for computer and network security as well as emphasis on the availability of commercial automated auditing and reporting mechanisms and promotion of products for security assessments and threat management (Chan & Perrig, 2003;Hwang, Tzeng & Tsai, 2003;Leighton, 2004).…”

The limitations of each security technology combined with the growth of cyber attacks impact the efficiency of information security management and increase the activities to be performed by network administrators and security staff. Therefore, there is a need for the increase of automated auditing and intelligent reporting mechanisms for the cyber trust. Intelligent systems are emerging computing systems based on intelligent techniques that support continuous monitoring and controlling plant activities. Intelligence improves an individual's ability to make better decisions. This paper presents a proposed architecture of an Intelligent System for Information Security Management (ISISM). The objective of this system is to improve security management processes such as monitoring, controlling, and decision making with an effect size that is higher than an expert in security by providing mechanisms to enhance the active construction of knowledge about threats, policies, procedures, and risks. We focus on requirements and design issues for the basic components of the intelligent system.
