Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) is security mechanism, which today become important tool for every infrastructure. Many various methodologies have been researched to enhance the effectiveness of IDS. “Swarm Intelligence (SI)” belongs to bio-inspired category of techniques, takes motivation from the behavior of swarms of biological creatures. After getting success of SI techniques, researchers gather interest in working in the stream of intrusion detection with SI. “Particle swarm optimization” is one of biological-inspired approach based on swarm intelligence. PSO is invented by James Kennedy and Russel Eberhart in 1995. PSO is used in this paper to provide an overview to develop a distributed and cooperative and low amount intrusion detection system IDS system.
