Today Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) have become a standard component of network security. Intrusion detection technology can help the system to deal with network attacks, extend the security management ability of the system manager and increase the integrality of information security foundation structure. So this paper helps in analyzing and evaluating the performance of SNORT IDS through alert Generated by intrusion detection system in high-speed networks. %K Alerts %K Barnyard %K IDS %K Networks Attack %K SNORT %U http://www.ijctee.org/files/VOLUME2ISSUE1/IJCTEE_0212_24.pdf
