As the development of information technology and thus the growth of security incidents, there has been increasing demand on developing a system for centralized security management, also known as Enterprise Security Management(ESM), uniting functions of various security systems such as firewall, intrusion detection system, virtual private network and so on. Unfortunately, however, developers have been suffering with a lack of related standard. Although ISTF recently announced firewall system and intrusion detection system log format, it still needs for truly efficient ESM further development of the related standard including event and control messaging. This paper analyses ISTF standard and further suggests an additional event and control messaging standard for firewall and intrusion detection systems. It is expected that this effort would be helpful for the development of ESM and further related standard.
