A Hybrid Approach for Network Intrusion Detection

Due to the widespread use of the internet and smart devices,various attacks like intrusion,zero-day,Malware,and security breaches are a constant threat to any organization’s network infrastructure.Thus,a Network Intrusion Detection System(NIDS)is required to detect attacks in network traffic.This paper proposes a new hybrid method for intrusion detection and attack categorization.The proposed approach comprises three steps to address high false and low false-negative rates for intrusion detection and attack categorization.In the first step,the dataset is preprocessed through the data transformation technique and min-max method.Secondly,the random forest recursive feature elimination method is applied to identify optimal features that positively impact the model’s performance.Next,we use various Support Vector Machine(SVM)types to detect intrusion and the Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy System(ANFIS)to categorize probe,U2R,R2U,and DDOS attacks.The validation of the proposed method is calculated through Fine Gaussian SVM(FGSVM),which is 99.3%for the binary class.Mean Square Error(MSE)is reported as 0.084964 for training data,0.0855203 for testing,and 0.084964 to validate multiclass categorization.

Method of Preventing Buffer Overflow Attacks by Intercepting DLL Functions

The way of intercepting Windows DLL functions against buffer overflow attacks is evaluated. It＇s produced at the expense of hooking vulnerable DLL functions by addition of check code. If the return address in the stack belongs to a heap or stack page, the call is from illicit code and the program is terminated. The signature of malicious code is recorded, so it is possible for the next attack to be filtered out. The return-into-libc attacks are detected by comparing the entry address of DLL functions with the overwritten return address in the stack. The presented method interrupts the execution of malicious code and prevents the system from being hijacked when these intercepted DLL functions are invoked in the context of buffer overflow.

Intrusion Detection Model Using Chaotic MAP for Network Coding Enabled Mobile Small Cells

Wireless Network security management is difficult because of the ever-increasing number of wireless network malfunctions,vulnerabilities,and assaults.Complex security systems,such as Intrusion Detection Systems(IDS),are essential due to the limitations of simpler security measures,such as cryptography and firewalls.Due to their compact nature and low energy reserves,wireless networks present a significant challenge for security procedures.The features of small cells can cause threats to the network.Network Coding(NC)enabled small cells are vulnerable to various types of attacks.Avoiding attacks and performing secure“peer”to“peer”data transmission is a challenging task in small cells.Due to the low power and memory requirements of the proposed model,it is well suited to use with constrained small cells.An attacker cannot change the contents of data and generate a new Hashed Homomorphic Message Authentication Code(HHMAC)hash between transmissions since the HMAC function is generated using the shared secret.In this research,a chaotic sequence mapping based low overhead 1D Improved Logistic Map is used to secure“peer”to“peer”data transmission model using lightweight H-MAC(1D-LM-P2P-LHHMAC)is proposed with accurate intrusion detection.The proposed model is evaluated with the traditional models by considering various evaluation metrics like Vector Set Generation Accuracy Levels,Key Pair Generation Time Levels,Chaotic Map Accuracy Levels,Intrusion Detection Accuracy Levels,and the results represent that the proposed model performance in chaotic map accuracy level is 98%and intrusion detection is 98.2%.The proposed model is compared with the traditional models and the results represent that the proposed model secure data transmission levels are high.

FMSA:a meta-learning framework-based fast model stealing attack technique against intelligent network intrusion detection systems

Intrusion detection systems are increasingly using machine learning.While machine learning has shown excellent performance in identifying malicious traffic,it may increase the risk of privacy leakage.This paper focuses on imple-menting a model stealing attack on intrusion detection systems.Existing model stealing attacks are hard to imple-ment in practical network environments,as they either need private data of the victim dataset or frequent access to the victim model.In this paper,we propose a novel solution called Fast Model Stealing Attack(FMSA)to address the problem in the field of model stealing attacks.We also highlight the risks of using ML-NIDS in network security.First,meta-learning frameworks are introduced into the model stealing algorithm to clone the victim model in a black-box state.Then,the number of accesses to the target model is used as an optimization term,resulting in minimal queries to achieve model stealing.Finally,adversarial training is used to simulate the data distribution of the target model and achieve the recovery of privacy data.Through experiments on multiple public datasets,compared to existing state-of-the-art algorithms,FMSA reduces the number of accesses to the target model and improves the accuracy of the clone model on the test dataset to 88.9%and the similarity with the target model to 90.1%.We can demonstrate the successful execution of model stealing attacks on the ML-NIDS system even with protective measures in place to limit the number of anomalous queries.

Network Intrusion Detection and Visualization Using Aggregations in a Cyber Security Data Warehouse

The challenge of achieving situational understanding is a limiting factor in effective, timely, and adaptive cyber-security analysis. Anomaly detection fills a critical role in network assessment and trend analysis, both of which underlie the establishment of comprehensive situational understanding. To that end, we propose a cyber security data warehouse implemented as a hierarchical graph of aggregations that captures anomalies at multiple scales. Each node of our proposed graph is a summarization table of cyber event aggregations, and the edges are aggregation operators. The cyber security data warehouse enables domain experts to quickly traverse a multi-scale aggregation space systematically. We describe the architecture of a test bed system and a summary of results on the IEEE VAST 2012 Cyber Forensics data.

An immunity based network security risk estimation

According to the relationship between the antibody concentration and the pathogen intrusion intensity, here we present an immunitybased model for the network security risk estimation （Insre）. In Insre, the concepts and formal definitions of self, nonself, antibody, antigen and lymphocyte in the network security domain are given. Then the mathematical models of the selftolerance, the clonal selection, the lifecycle of mature lymphocyte, immune memory and immune surveillance are established. Building upon the above models, a quantitative computation model for network security risk estimation, which is based on the calculation of antibody concentration, is thus presented. By using Insre, the types and intensity of network attacks, as well as the risk level of network security, can be calculated quantitatively and in real-time. Our theoretical analysis and experimental results show that Insre is a good solution to real-time risk evaluation for the network security.

Multi-agent cooperative intrusion response in mobile adhoc networks

The nature of adhoc networks makes them vulnerable to security attacks. Many security technologies such as intrusion prevention and intrusion detection are passive in response to intrusions in that their countermea- sures are only to protect the networks, and there is no automated network-wide counteraction against detected intrusions, the architecture of cooperation intrusion response based multi-agent is propose. The architecture is composed of mobile agents. Monitor agent resides on every node and monitors its neighbor nodes. Decision agent collects information from monitor nodes and detects an intrusion by security policies. When an intruder is found in the architecture, the block agents will get to the neighbor nodes of the intruder and form the mobile firewall to isolate the intruder. In the end, we evaluate it by simulation.

Distributed intrusion detection for mobile ad hoc networks

Mobile ad hoc networking （MANET） has become an exciting and important technology in recent years, because of the rapid proliferation of wireless devices. Mobile ad hoc networks is highly vulnerable to attacks due to the open medium, dynamically changing network topology, cooperative algorithms, and lack of centralized monitoring and management point. The traditional way of protecting networks with firewalls and encryption software is no longer sufficient and effective for those features. A distributed intrusion detection approach based on timed automata is given. 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 the timed automata is constructed by the way of manually abstracting the correct behaviours of the node according to the routing protocol of dynamic source routing （DSR）. The monitor nodes can verify the behaviour of every nodes by timed automata, 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, the approach is much more efficient while maintaining the same level of effectiveness. Finally, the intrusion detection method is evaluated through simulation experiments.

Genetic Algorithm with Variable Length Chromosomes for Network Intrusion Detection

Genetic algorithm(GA) has received significant attention for the design and implementation of intrusion detection systems. In this paper, it is proposed to use variable length chromosomes(VLCs) in a GA-based network intrusion detection system.Fewer chromosomes with relevant features are used for rule generation. An effective fitness function is used to define the fitness of each rule. Each chromosome will have one or more rules in it. As each chromosome is a complete solution to the problem, fewer chromosomes are sufficient for effective intrusion detection. This reduces the computational time. The proposed approach is tested using Defense Advanced Research Project Agency(DARPA) 1998 data. The experimental results show that the proposed approach is efficient in network intrusion detection.
