Abstract
The intrusion protection method and system for a communications network provides address agility wherein the cyber coordinates of a target host are changed both on a determined time schedule and when an intrusion attempt is detected. The system includes a management unit which generates a random sequence of cyber coordinates and maintains a series of tables containing the current and next set of cyber coordinates. These cyber coordinates are distributed to authorized users under an encryption process to prevent unauthorized access.
