An intrusion detection model based on deep belief nets (DBN) is proposed to conduct intrusion detection,and the principles regarding DBN are discussed.The DBN is composed of a multiple unsupervised restricted Boltzmann machine (RBM) and a supervised back propagation (BP)network.First,the DBN in the proposed model is pre-trained in a fast and greedy way,and each RBM is trained by the contrastive divergence algorithm.Secondly,the whole network is fine-tuned by the supervised BP algorithm,which is employed for classifying the low-dimensional features of the intrusion data generated by the last RBM layer simultaneously.The experimental results on the KDD CUP 1999 dataset demonstrate that the DBN using the RBM network with three or more layers outperforms the self-organizing maps (SOM)and neural network (NN)in intrusion classification.Therefore,the DBN is an efficient approach for intrusion detection in high-dimensional space.展开更多

The traditional way of protecting networks with firewalls and encryption software is no longer suffi- cient and effective for those features. In this paper, we propose a distributed intrusion detection ap- proach based on timed automata. A cluster-based detection scheme is presented, where periodically a node is elected as the monitor node for a cluster. These monitor nodes can not only make local intrusion detection decisions, but also cooperatively take part in global intrusion detection. And then we con- struct the Finite State Machine (FSM) by the way of manually abstracting the correct behaviors of the node according to the routing protocol of Dynamic Source Routing (DSR). The monitor nodes can verify every node's behavior by the Finite State Ma- chine (FSM), and validly detect real-time attacks without signatures of intrusion or trained data.Compared with the architecture where each node is its own IDS agent, our approach is much more efficient while maintaining the same level of effectiveness. Finally, we evaluate the intrusion detection method through simulation experiments.展开更多

However, the sec...Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) have many applications in homes, schools, enterprises, and public places because of their useful characteristics, such as high bandwidth, high speed, and wide coverage. However, the security of wireless mesh networks is a precondition for practical use. Intrusion detection is pivotal for increasing network security. Considering the energy limitations in wireless mesh networks, we adopt two types of nodes: Heavy Intrusion Detection Node (HIDN) and Light Intrusion Detection Node (LIDN). To conserve energy, the LIDN detects abnorrml behavior according to probability, while the HIDN, which has sufficient energy, is always operational. In practice, it is very difficult to acquire accurate information regarding attackers. We propose an intrusion detection model based on the incomplete inforrmtion game (ID-IIG). The ID-IIG utilizes the Harsanyi transformation and Bayesian Nash equilibrium to select the best strategies of defenders, although the exact attack probability is unknown. Thus, it can effectively direct the deployment of defenders. Through experiments, we analyze the perforrmnce of ID-IIG and verify the existence and attainability of the Bayesian Nash equilibrium.展开更多

The detectors generated by this kind of self set may have the problem of boundary holes between self and nonself regions, and the generation efficiency is low, so that, the self set needs to be optimized before generation stage. This paper proposes a self set optimization algorithm which uses the modified clustering algorithm and Gaussian distribution theory. The clustering deals with multi-area and the Gaussian distribution deals with the overlapping. The algorithm was tested by Iris data and real network data, and the results show that the optimized self set can solve the problem of boundary holes, increase the efficiency of detector generation effectively, and improve the system's detection rate.展开更多

An architecture of network security for power system was proposed in this study,which protected data and facilities from being attacked by outside users by means of firewall, security monitor and control system. Firewall was basically the first line of defense for the intranet; the security monitoring system was a kind of IDS (Intrusion Detection System), while security control system provided authentication, authorization,data-encrypted transmission and security management. This architecture provides various security services, such as identification, authentication, authorization, data integrity and confidentiality.展开更多

In this paper a novel intrusion detection mode based on understandable Neural Network Tree (NNTree) is pre-sented. NNTree is a modular neural network with the overall structure being a Decision Tree (DT), and each non-terminal node being an Expert Neural Network (ENN). One crucial advantage of using NNTrees is that they keep the non-symbolic model ENN’s capability of learning in changing environments. Another potential advantage of using NNTrees is that they are actually “gray boxes” as they can be interpreted easily if the num-ber of inputs for each ENN is limited. We showed through experiments that the trained NNTree achieved a simple ENN at each non-terminal node as well as a satisfying recognition rate of the network packets dataset. We also compared the performance with that of a three-layer backpropagation neural network. Experimental results indicated that the NNTree based intrusion detection model achieved better performance than the neural network based intrusion detection model.展开更多

With a view to the real problem to be solved, authors bring forward two assumptions, based on which a new immune algorithm, multi-level negative selection algorithm, is developed. In essence, compared with Forrest’s negative selection algorithm, it enhances detector generation efficiency. This algorithm integrates clonal selection process into negative selection process for the first time. After careful analyses, this algorithm was applied to network intrusion detection and achieved good results.展开更多

Although existing security systems (such as firewalls and intrusion detection systems) can satisfy most of the security requirements of network administrators, they are not suitable for detecting the activities of applying the HTTP-tunnel technique to steal users' private information. This paper focuses on a network behavior-based method to address the limitations of the existing protection systems. At first, it analyzes the normal network behavior pattern over HTI'P traffic and select four features. Then, it pres- ents an anomaly-based detection model that applies a hierarchical clustering technique and a scoring mechanism. It also uses real-world data to validate that the selected features are useful. The experiments have demonstrated that the model could achieve over 93% hit-rate with only about 3% false- positive rate. It is regarded confidently that the approach is a complementary technique to the existing security systems.展开更多
