The application of a large number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices makes our life more convenient and industries more efficient. However, it also makes cyber-attacks much easier to occur because so many IoT devices are deployed and most of them do not have enough resources (i.e., computation and storage capacity) to carry out ordinary intrusion detection systems (IDSs). In this study, a lightweight machine learning-based IDS using a new feature selection algorithm is designed and implemented on Raspberry Pi, and its performance is verified using a public dataset collected from an IoT environment. To make the system lightweight, we propose a new algorithm for feature selection, called the correlated-set thresholding on gain-ratio (CST-GR) algorithm, to select really necessary features. Because the feature selection is conducted on three specific kinds of cyber-attacks, the number of selected features can be significantly reduced, which makes the classifiers very small and fast. Thus, our detection system is lightweight enough to be implemented and carried out in a Raspberry Pi system. More importantly, as the really necessary features corresponding to each kind of attack are exploited, good detection performance can be expected. The performance of our proposal is examined in detail with different machine learning algorithms, in order to learn which of them is the best option for our system. The experiment results indicate that the new feature selection algorithm can select only very few features for each kind of attack. Thus, the detection system is lightweight enough to be implemented in the Raspberry Pi environment with almost no sacrifice on detection performance.

Helly Property

Immense growth in network-based services had resulted in the upsurge of internet users, security threats and cyber-attacks. Intrusion detection systems (IDSs) have become an essential component of any network architecture, in order to secure an IT infrastructure from the malicious activities of the intruders. An efficient IDS should be able to detect, identify and track the malicious attempts made by the intruders. With many IDSs available in the literature, the most common challenge due to voluminous network traffic patterns is the curse of dimensionality. This scenario emphasizes the importance of feature selection algorithm, which can identify the relevant features and ignore the rest without any information loss. In this paper, a novel rough set κ-Helly property technique (RSKHT) feature selection algorithm had been proposed to identify the key features for network IDSs. Experiments carried using benchmark KDD cup 1999 dataset were found to be promising, when compared with the existing feature selection algorithms with respect to reduct size, classifier’s performance and time complexity. RSKHT was found to be computationally attractive and flexible for massive datasets.

Feature selection is essential in data mining and pattern recognition, especially for database classification. During past years, several feature selection algorithms have been proposed to measure the relevance of various features to each class. A suitable feature selection algorithm normally maximizes the relevancy and minimizes the redundancy of the selected features. The mutual information measure can successfully estimate the dependency of features on the entire sampling space, but it cannot exactly represent the redundancies among features. In this paper, a novel feature selection algorithm is proposed based on maximum relevance and minimum redundancy criterion. The mutual information is used to measure the relevancy of each feature with class variable and calculate the redundancy by utilizing the relationship between candidate features, selected features and class variables. The effectiveness is tested with ten benchmarked datasets available in UCI Machine Learning Repository. The experimental results show better performance when compared with some existing algorithms.

Ransomware is a special malware designed to extort money in return for unlocking the device and personal data files. Smartphone users store their personal as well as official data on these devices. Ransomware attackers found it bewitching for their financial benefits. The financial losses due to ransomware attacks are increasing rapidly. Recent studies witness that out of 87% reported cyber-attacks, 41% are due to ransomware attacks. The inability of application-signature-based solutions to detect unknown malware has inspired many researchers to build automated classification models using machine learning algorithms. Advanced malware is capable of delaying malicious actions on sensing the emulated environment and hence posing a challenge to dynamic monitoring of applications also. Existing hybrid approaches utilize a variety of features combination for detection and analysis. The rapidly changing nature and distribution strategies are possible reasons behind the deteriorated performance of primitive ransomware detection techniques. The limitations of existing studies include ambiguity in selecting the features set. Increasing the feature set may lead to freedom of adept attackers against learning algorithms. In this work, we intend to propose a hybrid approach to identify and mitigate Android ransomware. This study employs a novel dominant feature selection algorithm to extract the dominant feature set. The experimental results show that our proposed model can differentiate between clean and ransomware with improved precision. Our proposed hybrid solution confirms an accuracy of 99.85% with zero false positives while considering 60 prominent features. Further, it also justifies the feature selection algorithm used. The comparison of the proposed method with the existing frameworks indicates its better performance.

With the exponential increase in a number of web pages daily, it makes it very difficult for a search engine to list relevant web pages. In this paper, we propose a machine learning-based classification model that can learn the best features in each web page and helps in search engine listing. The existing methods for listing have lots of drawbacks like interfacing the normal operations of the website and crawling lots of useless information. Our proposed algorithm provides an optimal classification for websites which has a large number of web pages such as Wikipedia by just considering core information like link text, side information, and header text. We implemented our algorithm with standard benchmark datasets, and the results show that our algorithm outperforms the existing algorithms.

Network Anomalies

Detecting anomalies in the traffic of computer networks is an important step in protecting and countering various types of cyber attacks. Among the many methods and approaches for detecting anomalies in network traffic, the most popular are machine learning methods that allow one to achieve high accuracy with minimal errors. One of the ways to improve the efficiency of anomaly detection using machine learning is the use of artificial neural networks of complex architecture, in particular, networks with long short-term memory (LSTM), which have demonstrated high efficiency in many areas. The paper is devoted to the study of the capabilities of LSTM neural networks for detecting network anomalies. It proposes using LSTM neural networks to detect network anomalies caused by cyber attacks to bypass Web Application Firewall vulnerabilities that are very difficult to detect by other means. For this purpose, it is proposed to use LSTM in conjunction with an autoencoder. The issues of software implementation of the proposed approach are considered. The experimental results obtained using the generated dataset confirmed the high efficiency of the developed approach. Experiments have shown that the proposed approach allows detecting cyber attacks in real or near real time.
