Javanese characters are traditional characters that are used to write the Javanese language. The Javanese language is a language used by many people on the island of Java, Indonesia. The use of Javanese characters is diminishing more and more because of the difficulty of studying the Javanese characters themselves. The Javanese character set consists of basic characters, numbers, complementary characters, and so on. In this research we have developed a system to recognize Javanese characters. Input for the system is a digital image containing several handwritten Javanese characters.…

Intrusion detection systems (IDS) play an important role in information security. Two major problems in the development of IDSs are the computational aspect and the architectural aspect. The computational or algorithmic problems include lacking ability of novel-attack detection and computation overload caused by large data traffic. The architectural problems are related to the communication between components of detection, including difficulties to overcome distributed and coordinated attacks because of the need of large amounts of distributed information and synchronization between detection…

The intrusion detection system (IDS) is an important network security tool for securing computer and network systems. It is able to detect and monitor network traffic data. Snort IDS is an open-source network security tool. It can search and match rules with network traffic data in order to detect attacks, and generate an alert. However, the Snort IDS can detect only known attacks. Therefore, we have proposed a procedure for improving Snort IDS rules, based on the association rules data mining technique for detection of network probe attacks. We employed the MIT-DARPA 1999 data set for the…

A range of international regulatory documents state the importance of counteracting insiders, especially cyber-insiders, in critical facilities and simultaneously providing complex protection, which includes technical, administrative and information protection. In that case the insider, who is familiar with the protection or information system, will be able to find vulnerabilities and weak points in the protection of the information system or control system. One of the most important aspects of the preventive measures against insiders is personnel checks using different techniques, including…

The importance of technology, especially information technology (IT), to businesses is widely accepted. But, different from large enterprises, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with their limited resources adopted IT slowly. Literature on technology adoption suggests that organizational readiness is one of many factors that determine the adoption of technology. This paper relates IT adoption in Indonesian manufacturing SMEs with their IT readiness represented by owners support and IT sophistication they have. In this paper, the variety of IT adoption by SMEs was explored using business…
