Computer technology is more and more ubiquitous,<br>the penetration of computer in society is a welcome step towards modernization but society needs<br>to be better equipped with challenges associated with technology. Thus, with the help of intrusion<br>detection system (IDS) that can be used to monitor network for any attack and intrusion, it can<br>reduce the security issues and help people to curb with the advance threat. This project aims to<br>provide insight to small organization, employee and student to have a secure environment in their<br>personal computer. The objectives of this project is to set up an isolate local area network (LAN)<br>to imitate a real network environment using Graphical Network Simulator-3 (GNS3) and to create<br>the scenario for analyzing Snort IDS performance in Windows and Ubuntu due to flooding attack.<br>Basically, this project uses a router in GNS3 that can act as a real router. The IDS was<br>implemented on the PC1 while PC2 acts as an attacker that send a flooding attack to PC 1. The<br>timer was set for 2 minutes and the performance was analyzed based on drop packet and<br>throughput. The result shows that the performance of Snort is better in Ubuntu compared to<br>Windows in term of its drop packet and throughput.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Journal of Computing Research and Innovation}, author={Mat Taib, Abidah and Shayuthi, Nur Syahirah}, year={2017}, month={Jun.}, pages={18–25} }
