Security Device Event Exchange (SDEE) is an IDS alert format and transport protocol specification. ICSA’s Intrusion Detection Systems Consortium (IDSC) devised the SDEE specification. SDEE builds upon the XML, HTTP and SSL/TLS industry standards to facilitate adoption by vendors and users by allowing them to use existing software that implements these standard interfaces. This effort may conflict with the IETF’s IntRusion Detection Message Exchange Format, which was published a new draft of their standard in 2004.”]
