Abstract
Using agents for developing intrusion detection systems
can provide several advantages, including configurability,
adaptability, scalability, and robustness. Almost all works
in agent-based intrusion detection have considered agents
as elements that perform specific tasks in the intrusion de-
tection process. In this paper, we propose a novel way of
using agents to solve one of the most pressing problems in
intrusion detection: the definition of an accurate model of
network normality. We consider agents as associated to
partial models of network normality that harmonize their
conflicts via cooperative negotiation. Experimental results
