Introduction: Intrusion detection systems play a key role in system security by identifying potential attacks and giving appropriate responses. As new attacks are always emerging, intrusion detection systems must adapt to these attacks, and more work is continuously needed to develop and propose new methods and techniques that can improve efficient and effective adaptive intrusion systems. Feature selection is one of the challenging areas that need more work because of its importance and impact on the performance of intrusion detection systems. This paper applies evolutionary search algorithm in feature subset selection for intrusion detection systems. Methods: The evolutionary search algorithm for the feature subset selection is applied and two classifiers are used, Naïve Bayes and decision tree J48, to evaluate system performance before and after features selection. NSL-KDD dataset and its subsets are used in all evaluation experiments. Results: The results show that feature selection using the evolutionary search algorithm enhances the intrusion detection system with respect to detection accuracy and detection of unknown attacks. Furthermore, time performance is achieved by reducing training time, which is reflected positively in overall system performance. Discussion: The evolutionary search applied to select IDS algorithm features can be developed by modifying and enhancing mutation and crossover operators and applying new enhanced techniques in the selection process, which can give better results and enhance the performance of intrusion detection for rare and complicated attacks. Conclusion: The evolutionary search algorithm is applied to find the best subset of features for the intrusion detection system. In conclusion, it is a promising approach to be used as a feature selection method for intrusion detection. The results showed better performance for the intrusion detection system in terms of accuracy and detection rate.

Many optimisation-based intrusion detection algorithms have been developed and are widely used for intrusion identification. This condition is attributed to the increasing number of audit data features and the decreasing performance of human-based smart intrusion detection systems regarding classification accuracy, false alarm rate, and classification time. Feature selection and classifier parameter tuning are important factors that affect the performance of any intrusion detection system. In this paper, an improved intrusion detection algorithm for multiclass classification was presented and discussed in detail. The proposed method combined the improved teaching-learning-based optimisation (ITLBO) algorithm, improved parallel JAYA (IPJAYA) algorithm, and support vector machine. ITLBO with supervised machine learning (ML) technique was used for feature subset selection (FSS). The selection of the least number of features without causing an effect on the result accuracy in FSS is a multiobjective optimisation problem. This work proposes ITLBO as an FSS mechanism, and its algorithm-specific, parameterless concept (no parameter tuning is required during optimisation) was explored. IPJAYA in this study was used to update the C and gamma parameters of the support vector machine (SVM). Several experiments were performed on the prominent intrusion ML dataset, where significant enhancements were observed with the suggested ITLBO-IPJAYA-SVM algorithm compared with the classical TLBO and JAYA algorithms.

The problem of load balancing in intrusion detection systems is considered in this paper. The analysis of existing problems of load balancing and modern methods of their solution are carried out. Types of intrusion detection systems and their description are given. A description of the intrusion detection system, its location, and the functioning of its elements in the computer system are provided. Comparative analysis of load balancing methods based on packet inspection and service time calculation is performed. An analysis of the causes of load imbalance in the intrusion detection system elements and the effects of load imbalance is also presented. A model of a network intrusion detection system based on packet signature analysis is presented. This paper describes the multifractal properties of traffic. Based on the analysis of intrusion detection systems, multifractal traffic properties and load balancing problem, the method of balancing is proposed, which is based on the funcsioning of the intrusion detection system elements and analysis of multifractal properties of incoming traffic. The proposed method takes into account the time of deep packet inspection required to compare a packet with signatures, which is calculated based on the calculation of the information flow multifractality degree. Load balancing rules are generated by the estimated average time of deep packet inspection and traffic multifractal parameters. This paper presents the simulation results of the proposed load balancing method compared to the standard method. It is shown that the load balancing method proposed in this paper provides for a uniform load distribution at the intrusion detection system elements. This allows for high speed and accuracy of intrusion detection with high-quality multifractal load balancing.

Considering current network scenario hackers and intruders has become a big threat today. As new technologies are emerging fast, extensive use of these technologies and computers, what plays an important role is security. Most of the computers in network can be easily compromised with attacks. Big issue of concern is increase in new type of attack these days. Security to the sensitive data is very big threat to deal with, it need to consider as high priority issue which should be addressed immediately. Highly efficient Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are available now a days which detects various types of attacks on network. But we require the IDS which is intelligent enough to detect and analyze all type of new threats on the network. Maximum accuracy is expected by any of this intelligent intrusion detection system. An Intrusion Detection System can be hardware or software that analyze and monitors all activities of network to detect malicious activities happened inside the network. It also informs and helps administrator to deal with malicious packets, which if enters in network can harm more number of computers connected together. In our work we have implemented an intellectual IDS which helps administrator to analyze real time network traffic. IDS does it by classifying packets entering into the system as normal or malicious. This paper mainly focus on techniques used for feature selection to reduce number of features from KDD-99 dataset. This paper also explains algorithm used for classification i.e., Random Forest which works with forest of trees to classify real time packet as normal or malicious. Random forest makes use of ensembling techniques to give final output which is derived by combining output from number of trees used to create forest. Dataset which is used while performing experiments is KDD-99. This dataset is used to train all trees to get more accuracy with help of random forest. From results achieved we can observe that random forest algorithm gives more accuracy in distributed network with reduced false alarm rate.

In the era of Internet and with increasing number of people as its end users, a large number of attack categories are introduced daily. Hence, effective detection of various attacks with the help of Intrusion Detection Systems is an emerging trend in research these days. Existing studies show effectiveness of machine learning approaches in handling Intrusion Detection Systems. In this work, we aim to enhance detection rate of Intrusion Detection System by using machine learning technique. We propose a novel classifier ensemble based IDS that is constructed using hybrid approach which combines data level and feature level approach. Classifier ensembles combine the opinions of different experts and improve the intrusion detection rate. Experimental results show the improved detection rates of our system compared to reference technique.

Feature selection is a process of identifying relevant feature subset that leads to the machine learning algorithm in a well-defined manner. In this paper, anovel ensemble feature selection approach that comprises of Relief  Attribute Evaluation and hybrid kernel-based support vector machine (HK-SVM) approach is proposed as a feature selection method for network intrusion detection system (NIDS). A Hybrid approach along with the combination of Gaussian and Polynomial methods is used as a kernel for support vector machine (SVM). The key issue is to select a feature subset that yields good accuracy at a minimal computational cost. The proposed approach is implemented and compared with classical SVM and simple kernel. Kyoto2006+, a bench mark intrusion detection dataset,is used for experimental evaluation and then observations are drawn.

Intrusion detection is an emerging area of research in the computer security and net-works with the growing usage of internet in everyday life. Most intrusion detection systems (IDSs) mostly use a single classifier algorithm to classify the network traffic data as normal behavior or anomalous. However, these single classifier systems fail to provide the best possible attack detection rate with low false alarm rate. In this paper,we propose to use a hybrid intelligent approach using a combination of classifiers in order to make the decision intelligently, so that the overall performance of the resul-tant model is enhanced. The general procedure in this is to follow the supervised or un-supervised data filtering with classifier or cluster first on the whole training dataset and then the output are applied to another classifier to classify the data. In this re- search, we applied Neural Network with Supervised and Unsupervised Learning in order to implement the intrusion detection system. Moreover, in this project, we used the method of Parallelization with real time application of the system processors to detect the systems intrusions.Using this method enhanced the speed of the intrusion detection. In order to train and test the neural network, NSLKDD database was used. Creating some different intrusion detection systems, each of which considered as a single agent, we precisely proceeded with the signature-based intrusion detection of the network.In the proposed design, the attacks have been classified into 4 groups and each group is detected by an Agent equipped with intrusion detection system (IDS).These agents act independently and report the intrusion or non-intrusion in the system; the results achieved by the agents will be studied in the Final Analyst and at last the analyst reports that whether there has been an intrusion in the system or not.Keywords: Intrusion Detection, Multi-layer Perceptron, False Positives, Signature- based intrusion detection, Decision tree, Nave Bayes Classifier

AbstractNetwork attacks are illegal activities on digital resources within an organizational network with the express intention of compromising systems. A cyber attack can be directed by individuals, communities, states or even from an anonymous source. Hackers commonly conduct network attacks to alter, damage, or steal private data. Intrusion detection systems (IDS) are the best and most effective techniques when it comes to tackle these threats. An IDS is a software application or hardware device that monitors traffic to search for malevolent activity or policy breaches. Moreover, IDSs are designed to be deployed in different environments, and they can either be host-based or network-based. A host-based intrusion detection system is installed on the client computer, while a network-based intrusion detection system is located on the network. IDSs based on deep learning have been used in the past few years and proved their effectiveness. However, these approaches produce a big false negative rate, which impacts the performance and potency of network security. In this paper, a detection model based on long short-term memory (LSTM) and Attention mechanism is proposed. Furthermore, we used four reduction algorithms, namely: Chi-Square, UMAP, Principal Components Analysis (PCA), and Mutual information. In addition, we evaluated the proposed approaches on the NSL-KDD dataset. The experimental results demonstrate that using Attention with all features and using PCA with 03 components had the best performance, reaching an accuracy of 99.09% and 98.49% for binary and multiclass classification, respectively.
