Abstract In 2002, DARPA put together a challenging proposition to the research community: demonstrate that a very high level of survivability is achievable when under unconstrained attack by a nation-state-level red team using an existing information system and available DARPA developed and other COTS technologies. This report describes the monitoring, intrusion detection, and reporting components of the resulting system, called DPASA, highlighting the design principles and lessons learned that are generally applicable to survivable information systems.
