  • To realize high-speed intrusion detection by accommodating many regular expression (regex)-based signatures and growing network link capacities, we propose the Service TimE-Aware Load-balancing (STEAL) algorithm. This work is motivated from the observation that utilization of a many-core network intrusion detection system (NIDS) is influenced by unfair computational distribution among many-core NIDS nodes. To avoid such unfair computational distribution, STEAL is designed to dynamically distribute a large volume of traffic among many-core NIDS nodes based on packet service time, which is represented by the deep packet time in many-core NIDS nodes. From experiments, we show that compared to the commonly used load-balancing algorithm based on arrival rate, STEAL increases the number of received packets (i.e., decreases the number of dropped packets) in many-core NIDS. Specifically, by integrating an open source NIDS (i.e. Bro) with STEAL, we show that even under attack-dominant traffic and with many signatures, STEAL can rapidly improve the performance of many-core NIDS to realize high-speed intrusion detection.

  • With the seamless growth of the technology, network usage requirements are expanding day by day. The majority of electronic devices are capable of communication, which strongly requires a secure and reliable network. Network-based intrusion detection systems (NIDS) is a new method for preventing and alerting computers and networks from attacks. Machine Learning is an emerging field that provides a variety of ways to implement effective network intrusion detection systems (NIDS). Bagging and Boosting are two ensemble ML techniques, renowned for better performance in the learning and classification process. In this paper, the study provides a detailed literature review of the past work done and proposed a novel ensemble approach to develop a NIDS system based on the voting method using bagging and boosting ensemble techniques. The test results demonstrate that the ensemble of bagging and boosting through voting exhibits the highest classification accuracy of 99.98% and a minimum false positive rate (FPR) on both datasets. Although the model building time is average which can be a tradeoff by processor speed.

  • The conventional methods of network intrusion detection system (NIDS) cannot measure the trend of intrusiondetection targets effectively, which lead to low detection accuracy. In this study, a NIDS method which based on a deep neural network in a big-data environment is proposed. Firstly, the entire framework of the NIDS model is constructed in two stages. Feature reduction and anomaly probability output are used at the core of the two stages. Subsequently, a convolutional neural network, which encompasses a down sampling layer and a characteristic extractor consist of a convolution layer, the correlation of inputs is realized by introducing bidirectional long short-term memory. Finally, after the convolution layer, a pooling layer is added to sample the required features according to different sampling rules, which promotes the overall performance of the NIDS model. The proposed NIDS method and three other methods are compared, and it is broken down under the conditions of the two databases through simulation experiments. The results demonstrate that the proposed model is superior to the other three methods of NIDS in two databases, in terms of precision, accuracy, F1- score, and recall, which are 91.64%, 93.35%, 92.25%, and 91.87%, respectively. The proposed algorithm is significant for improving the accuracy of NIDS.

  • Computer and network security has recently become a popular subject due to the explosive growth of the Internet Especially, attacks based on malformed packet are difficult to detect because these attacks use the skill of bypassing the intrusion detection system and Firewall. This paper designs and implements a network-based intrusion detection system (NIDS) which detects intrusions with malformed-packets in real-time. First, signatures, rules in NIDS like Snouts rule files, are classified using similar properties between signatures NIDS creates a rule tree applying hashing technique based on the classification. As a result the system can efficiently perform intrusion detection.

  • Recently, many studies have been conducted on ways to utilize AI technology in NIDS (Network Intrusion Detection System). In particular, CNN-based NIDS generally shows excellent performance. CNN is basically a method of using correlation between pixels existing in an image. Therefore, the method of generating an image is very important in CNN. In this paper, the performance comparison of CNN-based NIDS according to the image generation method was performed. The image generation methods used in the experiment are a direct conversion method and a one-hot encoding based method. As a result of the experiment, the performance of NIDS was different depending on the image generation method. In particular, it was confirmed that the method combining the direct conversion method and the one-hot encoding based method proposed in this paper showed the best performance.

  • Internet users are exposed to sophisticated cyberattacks that intrusion detection systems have difficulty detecting. Therefore, research is increasing on intrusion detection methods that use artificial intelligence technology for detecting novel cyberattacks. Unsupervised learning-based methods are being researched that learn only from normal data and detect abnormal behaviors by finding patterns. This study developed an anomaly-detection method based on unsupervised machines and deep learning for a network intrusion detection system (NIDS). We present a hybrid anomaly detection approach based on unsupervised learning techniques using the autoencoder (AE), Isolation Forest (IF), and Local Outlier Factor (LOF) algorithms. An oversampling approach that increased the detection rate was also examined. A hybrid approach that combined deep learning algorithms and traditional machine learning algorithms was highly effective in setting the thresholds for anomalies without subjective human judgment. It achieved precision and recall rates respectively of 88.2% and 92.8% when combining two AEs, IF, and LOF while using an oversampling approach to learn more unknown normal data improved the detection accuracy. This approach achieved precision and recall rates respectively of 88.2% and 94.6%, further improving the detection accuracy compared with the hybrid method. Therefore, in NIDS the proposed approach provides high reliability for detecting cyberattacks.

  • In this paper, we propose an in-line mode NIDS using network processors(NPs) that achieve performance comparable to ASIC and flexibility comparable to general-purpose processors. Even if many networking applications using NPs have been proposed, we cannot find any NP applications to NIDS in the literature. The proposed NIDS supports packet payload inspection detecting attacks, as well as packet filtering and traffic metering. In particular, we separate the filtering and metering functions from the complicated and time-consuming operations of the deep packet inspection function using two-level searching scheme, thus we can improve the performance, stability, and scalability of In-line mode system. We also implement a proto-type based on a PC platform and the Agere PayloadPlus (APP) 2.5G NP solution, and present a payload inspection algorithm to apply APP NP.
