Although most readers are probably familiar with the term intrusion detection and its general underlying function, they are probably not familiar with extrusion detection, a new concept that may become an emerging key technology in network security. Behind this concept is a series of techniques and approaches for monitoring outbound connections in order to detect a potential intruder or a violation of in-place security policies. Outbound connections are initiated from your network toward the outside, and, at first glance, monitoring them seems to be just a simple and straightforward extension of general network monitoring.
