Multi-Zone-Wise Blockchain Based Intrusion Detection and Prevention System for IoT Environment

Blockchain merges technology with the Internet of Things(IoT)for addressing security and privacy-related issues.However,conventional blockchain suffers from scalability issues due to its linear structure,which increases the storage overhead,and Intrusion detection performed was limited with attack severity,leading to performance degradation.To overcome these issues,we proposed MZWB(Multi-Zone-Wise Blockchain)model.Initially,all the authenticated IoT nodes in the network ensure their legitimacy by using the Enhanced Blowfish Algorithm(EBA),considering several metrics.Then,the legitimately considered nodes for network construction for managing the network using Bayesian-Direct Acyclic Graph(B-DAG),which considers several metrics.The intrusion detection is performed based on two tiers.In the first tier,a Deep Convolution Neural Network(DCNN)analyzes the data packets by extracting packet flow features to classify the packets as normal,malicious,and suspicious.In the second tier,the suspicious packets are classified as normal or malicious using the Generative Adversarial Network(GAN).Finally,intrusion scenario performed reconstruction to reduce the severity of attacks in which Improved Monkey Optimization(IMO)is used for attack path discovery by considering several metrics,and the Graph cut utilized algorithm for attack scenario reconstruction(ASR).UNSW-NB15 and BoT-IoT utilized datasets for the MZWB method simulated using a Network simulator(NS-3.26).Compared with previous performance metrics such as energy consumption,storage overhead accuracy,response time,attack detection rate,precision,recall,and F-measure.The simulation result shows that the proposed MZWB method achieves high performance than existing works.

A Comprehensive Analysis of Datasets for Automotive Intrusion Detection Systems

Recently,automotive intrusion detection systems(IDSs)have emerged as promising defense approaches to counter attacks on in-vehicle networks(IVNs).However,the effectiveness of IDSs relies heavily on the quality of the datasets used for training and evaluation.Despite the availability of several datasets for automotive IDSs,there has been a lack of comprehensive analysis focusing on assessing these datasets.This paper aims to address the need for dataset assessment in the context of automotive IDSs.It proposes qualitative and quantitative metrics that are independent of specific automotive IDSs,to evaluate the quality of datasets.These metrics take into consideration various aspects such as dataset description,collection environment,and attack complexity.This paper evaluates eight commonly used datasets for automotive IDSs using the proposed metrics.The evaluation reveals biases in the datasets,particularly in terms of limited contexts and lack of diversity.Additionally,it highlights that the attacks in the datasets were mostly injected without considering normal behaviors,which poses challenges for training and evaluating machine learning-based IDSs.This paper emphasizes the importance of addressing the identified limitations in existing datasets to improve the performance and adaptability of automotive IDSs.The proposed metrics can serve as valuable guidelines for researchers and practitioners in selecting and constructing high-quality datasets for automotive security applications.Finally,this paper presents the requirements for high-quality datasets,including the need for representativeness,diversity,and balance.

This study presents a novel approach by proposing a Hybrid Dense Neural Network-Radial Basis Function Neural Network (DNN-RBFNN) architecture to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of IDS. The hybrid model synergizes the strengths of both dense learning and radial basis function networks, aiming to address the limitations of traditional IDS techniques in classifying packets that could result in Remote-to-local (R2L), Denial of Service (Dos), and User-to-root (U2R) intrusions.

XA-GANomaly: An Explainable Adaptive Semi-Supervised Learning Method for Intrusion Detection Using GANomaly

Intrusion detection involves identifying unauthorized network activity and recognizing whether the data constitute an abnormal network transmission.Recent research has focused on using semi-supervised learning mechanisms to identify abnormal network traffic to deal with labeled and unlabeled data in the industry.However,real-time training and classifying network traffic pose challenges,as they can lead to the degradation of the overall dataset and difficulties preventing attacks.Additionally,existing semi-supervised learning research might need to analyze the experimental results comprehensively.This paper proposes XA-GANomaly,a novel technique for explainable adaptive semi-supervised learning using GANomaly,an image anomalous detection model that dynamically trains small subsets to these issues.First,this research introduces a deep neural network(DNN)-based GANomaly for semi-supervised learning.Second,this paper presents the proposed adaptive algorithm for the DNN-based GANomaly,which is validated with four subsets of the adaptive dataset.Finally,this study demonstrates a monitoring system that incorporates three explainable techniques—Shapley additive explanations,reconstruction error visualization,and t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding—to respond effectively to attacks on traffic data at each feature engineering stage,semi-supervised learning,and adaptive learning.Compared to other single-class classification techniques,the proposed DNN-based GANomaly achieves higher scores for Network Security Laboratory-Knowledge Discovery in Databases and UNSW-NB15 datasets at 13%and 8%of F1 scores and 4.17%and 11.51%for accuracy,respectively.Furthermore,experiments of the proposed adaptive learning reveal mostly improved results over the initial values.An analysis and monitoring system based on the combination of the three explainable methodologies is also described.Thus,the proposed method has the potential advantages to be applied in practical industry,and future research will explore handling unbalanced real-time datasets in various scenarios.

Ensemble-Based Approach for Efficient Intrusion Detection in Network Traffic

The exponential growth of Internet and network usage has neces-sitated heightened security measures to protect against data and network breaches.Intrusions,executed through network packets,pose a significant challenge for firewalls to detect and prevent due to the similarity between legit-imate and intrusion traffic.The vast network traffic volume also complicates most network monitoring systems and algorithms.Several intrusion detection methods have been proposed,with machine learning techniques regarded as promising for dealing with these incidents.This study presents an Intrusion Detection System Based on Stacking Ensemble Learning base(Random For-est,Decision Tree,and k-Nearest-Neighbors).The proposed system employs pre-processing techniques to enhance classification efficiency and integrates seven machine learning algorithms.The stacking ensemble technique increases performance by incorporating three base models(Random Forest,Decision Tree,and k-Nearest-Neighbors)and a meta-model represented by the Logistic Regression algorithm.Evaluated using the UNSW-NB15 dataset,the pro-posed IDS gained an accuracy of 96.16%in the training phase and 97.95%in the testing phase,with precision of 97.78%,and 98.40%for taring and testing,respectively.The obtained results demonstrate improvements in other measurement criteria.

Intrusion Detection System for PS-Poll DoS Attack in 802.11 Networks Using Real Time Discrete Event System

Wi-Fi devices have limited battery life because of which conserving battery life is imperative. The 802.11 Wi-Fi standard provides power management feature that allows stations(STAs) to enter into sleep state to preserve energy without any frame losses. After the STA wakes up, it sends a null data or PS-Poll frame to retrieve frame(s) buffered by the access point(AP), if any during its sleep period. An attacker can launch a power save denial of service(PS-DoS) attack on the sleeping STA(s) by transmitting a spoofed null data or PS-Poll frame(s) to retrieve the buffered frame(s) of the sleeping STA(s) from the AP causing frame losses for the targeted STA(s). Current approaches to prevent or detect the PS-DoS attack require encryption,change in protocol or installation of proprietary hardware. These solutions suffer from expensive setup, maintenance, scalability and deployment issues. The PS-DoS attack does not differ in semantics or statistics under normal and attack circumstances.So signature and anomaly based intrusion detection system(IDS) are unfit to detect the PS-DoS attack. In this paper we propose a timed IDS based on real time discrete event system(RTDES) for detecting PS-DoS attack. The proposed DES based IDS overcomes the drawbacks of existing systems and detects the PS-DoS attack with high accuracy and detection rate. The correctness of the RTDES based IDS is proved by experimenting all possible attack scenarios.

Protecting Against Address Space Layout Randomisation (ASLR) Compromises and Return-to-Libc Attacks Using Network Intrusion Detection Systems

Writable XOR executable （W⊕X） and address space layout randomisation （ASLR） have elevated the understanding necessary to perpetrate buffer overflow exploits [1] . However, they have not proved to be a panacea [1 3] , and so other mechanisms, such as stack guards and prelinking, have been introduced. In this paper, we show that host-based protection still does not offer a complete solution. To demonstrate the protection inadequacies, we perform an over the network brute force return-to-libc attack against a preforking concurrent server to gain remote access to a shell. The attack defeats host protection including W⊕X and ASLR. We then demonstrate that deploying a network intrusion detection systems （NIDS） with appropriate signatures can detect this attack efficiently.

Intrusion Detection Using Federated Learning for Computing

The integration of clusters,grids,clouds,edges and other computing platforms result in contemporary technology of jungle computing.This novel technique has the aptitude to tackle high performance computation systems and it manages the usage of all computing platforms at a time.Federated learning is a collaborative machine learning approach without centralized training data.The proposed system effectively detects the intrusion attack without human intervention and subsequently detects anomalous deviations in device communication behavior,potentially caused by malicious adversaries and it can emerge with new and unknown attacks.The main objective is to learn overall behavior of an intruder while performing attacks to the assumed target service.Moreover,the updated system model is send to the centralized server in jungle computing,to detect their pattern.Federated learning greatly helps the machine to study the type of attack from each device and this technique paves a way to complete dominion over all malicious behaviors.In our proposed work,we have implemented an intrusion detection system that has high accuracy,low False Positive Rate(FPR)scalable,and versatile for the jungle computing environment.The execution time taken to complete a round is less than two seconds,with an accuracy rate of 96%.

Improved Monarchy Butterfly Optimization Algorithm (IMBO): Intrusion Detection Using Mapreduce Framework Based Optimized ANU-Net

The demand for cybersecurity is rising recently due to the rapid improvement of network technologies.As a primary defense mechanism,an intrusion detection system(IDS)was anticipated to adapt and secure com-puting infrastructures from the constantly evolving,sophisticated threat land-scape.Recently,various deep learning methods have been put forth;however,these methods struggle to recognize all forms of assaults,especially infrequent attacks,because of network traffic imbalances and a shortage of aberrant traffic samples for model training.This work introduces deep learning(DL)based Attention based Nested U-Net(ANU-Net)for intrusion detection to address these issues and enhance detection performance.For this IDS model,the first data preprocessing is carried out in three stages:duplication elimi-nation,label transformation,and data normalization.Then the features are extracted and selected based on the Improved Flower Pollination Algorithm(IFPA).The Improved Monarchy Butterfly Optimization Algorithm(IMBO),a new metaheuristic,is used to modify the hyper-parameters in ANU-Net,effectively increasing the learning rate for spatial-temporal information and resolving the imbalance problem.Through the use of parallel programming,the MapReduce architecture reduces computation complexity while signifi-cantly accelerating processing.Three publicly available data sets were used to evaluate and test the approach.The investigational outcomes suggest that the proposed technique can more efficiently boost the performances of IDS under the scenario of unbalanced data.The proposed method achieves above 98%accuracy and classifies various attacks significantly well compared to other classifiers.

Intrusion Detection Using Ensemble Wrapper Filter Based Feature Selection with Stacking Model

The number of attacks is growing tremendously in tandem with the growth of internet technologies.As a result,protecting the private data from prying eyes has become a critical and tough undertaking.Many intrusion detection solutions have been offered by researchers in order to decrease the effect of these attacks.For attack detection,the prior system has created an SMSRPF(Stacking Model Significant Rule Power Factor)classifier.To provide creative instance detection,the SMSRPF combines the detection of trained classifiers such as DT(Decision Tree)and RF(Random Forest).Nevertheless,it does not generate any accuratefindings that are adequate.The suggested system has built an EWF(Ensemble Wrapper Filter)feature selection with SMSRPF classifier for attack detection so as to overcome this problem.The UNSW-NB15 dataset is used as an input in this proposed research project.Specifically,min–max normalization approach is used to pre-process the incoming data.The feature selection is then carried out using EWF.Based on the selected features,SMSRPF classifiers are utilized to detect the attacks.The SMSRPF is integrated with the trained classi-fiers such as DT and RF to create creative instance detection.After that,the testing data is classified using MCAR(Multi-Class Classification based on Association Rules).The SRPF judges the rules correctly even when the confidence and the lift measures fail.Regarding accuracy,precision,recall,f-measure,computation time,and error,the experimental findings suggest that the new system outperforms the prior systems.

AN INTRUSION DETECTION SYSTEM BASED ON EVIDENCE THEORY AND ROUGH SET THEORY

In this paper,we propose a novel Intrusion Detection System (IDS) architecture utilizing both the evidence theory and Rough Set Theory (RST). Evidence theory is an effective tool in dealing with uncertainty question. It relies on the expert knowledge to provide evidences,needing the evidences to be independent,and this make it difficult in application. To solve this problem,a hybrid system of rough sets and evidence theory is proposed. Firstly,simplification are made based on Variable Precision Rough Set (VPRS) conditional entropy. Thus,the Basic Belief Assignment (BBA) for all evidences can be calculated. Secondly,Dempster’s rule of combination is used,and a decision-making is given. In the proposed approach,the difficulties in acquiring the BBAs are solved,the correlativity among the evidences is reduced and the subjectivity of evidences is weakened. An illustrative example in an intrusion detection shows that the two theories combination is feasible and effective.

Design and implementation of self-protection agent for network-based intrusion detection system

Static secure techniques, such as firewall, hierarchy filtering, distributed disposing,layer management, autonomy agent, secure communication, were introduced in distributed intrusion detection. The self-protection agents were designed, which have the distributed architecture,cooperate with the agents in intrusion detection in a loose-coupled manner, protect the security of intrusion detection system, and respond to the intrusion actively. A prototype self-protection agent was implemented by using the packet filter in operation system kernel. The results show that all the hosts with the part of network-based intrusion detection system and the whole intrusion detection system are invisible from the outside and network scanning, and cannot apperceive the existence of network-based intrusion detection system. The communication between every part is secure. In the low layer, the packet streams are controlled to avoid the buffer leaks exist ing in some system service process and back-door programs, so as to prevent users from misusing and vicious attack like Trojan Horse effectively.

Designing an Agent-Based Intrusion Detection System for Heterogeneous Wireless Sensor Networks: Robust, Fault Tolerant and Dynamic Reconfigurable

Protecting networks against different types of attacks is one of most important posed issue into the network and information security domains. This problem on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), in attention to their special properties, has more importance. Now, there are some of proposed solutions to protect Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) against different types of intrusions;but no one of them has a comprehensive view to this problem and they are usually designed in single-purpose;but, the proposed design in this paper has been a comprehensive view to this issue by presenting a complete architecture of Intrusion Detection System (IDS). The main contribution of this architecture is its modularity and flexibility;i.e. it is designed and applicable, in four steps on intrusion detection process, consistent to the application domain and its required security level. Focus of this paper is on the heterogeneous WSNs and network-based IDS, by designing and deploying the Wireless Sensor Network wide level Intrusion Detection System (WSNIDS) on the base station (sink). Finally, this paper has been designed a questionnaire to verify its idea, by using the acquired results from analyzing the questionnaires.

Effective data transmission through energy-efficient clustering and Fuzzy-Based IDS routing approach in WSNs

Wireless sensor networks(WSN)gather information and sense information samples in a certain region and communicate these readings to a base station(BS).Energy efficiency is considered a major design issue in the WSNs,and can be addressed using clustering and routing techniques.Information is sent from the source to the BS via routing procedures.However,these routing protocols must ensure that packets are delivered securely,guaranteeing that neither adversaries nor unauthentic individuals have access to the sent information.Secure data transfer is intended to protect the data from illegal access,damage,or disruption.Thus,in the proposed model,secure data transmission is developed in an energy-effective manner.A low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy(LEACH)is developed to efficiently transfer the data.For the intrusion detection systems(IDS),Fuzzy logic and artificial neural networks(ANNs)are proposed.Initially,the nodes were randomly placed in the network and initialized to gather information.To ensure fair energy dissipation between the nodes,LEACH randomly chooses cluster heads(CHs)and allocates this role to the various nodes based on a round-robin management mechanism.The intrusion-detection procedure was then utilized to determine whether intruders were present in the network.Within the WSN,a Fuzzy interference rule was utilized to distinguish the malicious nodes from legal nodes.Subsequently,an ANN was employed to distinguish the harmful nodes from suspicious nodes.The effectiveness of the proposed approach was validated using metrics that attained 97%accuracy,97%specificity,and 97%sensitivity of 95%.Thus,it was proved that the LEACH and Fuzzy-based IDS approaches are the best choices for securing data transmission in an energy-efficient manner.

A Neuro-genetic Based Short-term Forecasting Framework for Network Intrusion Prediction System

Information systems are one of the most rapidly changing and vulnerable systems, where security is a major issue. The number of security-breaking attempts originating inside organizations is increasing steadily. Attacks made in this way, usually done by ＂authorized＂ users of the system, cannot be immediately traced. Because the idea of filtering the traffic at the entrance door, by using firewalls and the like, is not completely successful, the use of intrusion detection systems should be considered to increase the defense capacity of an information system. An intrusion detection system （IDS） is usually working in a dynamically changing environment, which forces continuous tuning of the intrusion detection model, in order to maintain sufficient performance. The manual tuning process required by current IDS depends on the system operators in working out the tuning solution and in integrating it into the detection model. Furthermore, an extensive effort is required to tackle the newly evolving attacks and a deep study is necessary to categorize it into the respective classes. To reduce this dependence, an automatically evolving anomaly IDS using neuro-genetic algorithm is presented. The proposed system automatically tunes the detection model on the fly according to the feedback provided by the system operator when false predictions are encountered. The system has been evaluated using the Knowledge Discovery in Databases Conference （KDD 2009） intrusion detection dataset. Genetic paradigm is employed to choose the predominant features, which reveal the occurrence of intrusions. The neuro-genetic IDS （NGIDS） involves calculation of weightage value for each of the categorical attributes so that data of uniform representation can be processed by the neuro-genetic algorithm. In this system unauthorized invasion of a user are identified and newer types of attacks are sensed and classified respectively by the neuro-genetic algorithm. The experimental results obtained in this work show that the system achieves improvement in terms of misclassification cost when compared with conventional IDS. The results of the experiments show that this system can be deployed based on a real network or database environment for effective prediction of both normal attacks and new attacks.

A New Database Intrusion Detection Approach Based on Hybrid Meta-Heuristics

A new secured database management system architecture using intrusion detection systems(IDS)is proposed in this paper for organizations with no previous role mapping for users.A simple representation of Structured Query Language queries is proposed to easily permit the use of the worked clustering algorithm.A new clustering algorithm that uses a tube search with adaptive memory is applied to database log files to create users’profiles.Then,queries issued for each user are checked against the related user profile using a classifier to determine whether or not each query is malicious.The IDS will stop query execution or report the threat to the responsible person if the query is malicious.A simple classifier based on the Euclidean distance is used and the issued query is transformed to the proposed simple representation using a classifier,where the Euclidean distance between the centers and the profile’s issued query is calculated.A synthetic data set is used for our experimental evaluations.Normal user access behavior in relation to the database is modelled using the data set.The false negative(FN)and false positive(FP)rates are used to compare our proposed algorithm with other methods.The experimental results indicate that our proposed method results in very small FN and FP rates.

An Intrusion Detection Algorithm Based on Feature Graph

With the development of Information technology and the popularization of Internet,whenever and wherever possible,people can connect to the Internet optionally.Meanwhile,the security of network traffic is threatened by various of online malicious behaviors.The aim of an intrusion detection system(IDS)is to detect the network behaviors which are diverse and malicious.Since a conventional firewall cannot detect most of the malicious behaviors,such as malicious network traffic or computer abuse,some advanced learning methods are introduced and integrated with intrusion detection approaches in order to improve the performance of detection approaches.However,there are very few related studies focusing on both the effective detection for attacks and the representation for malicious behaviors with graph.In this paper,a novel intrusion detection approach IDBFG(Intrusion Detection Based on Feature Graph)is proposed which first filters normal connections with grid partitions,and then records the patterns of various attacks with a novel graph structure,and the behaviors in accordance with the patterns in graph are detected as intrusion behaviors.The experimental results on KDD-Cup 99 dataset show that IDBFG performs better than SVM(Supprot Vector Machines)and Decision Tree which are trained and tested in original feature space in terms of detection rates,false alarm rates and run time.

An Intrusion Detection Algorithm for Wireless Networks Based on ASDL

Wireless networks are more vulnerable to cyberattacks than cable networks. Compared with the misuse intrusion detection techniques based on pattern matching, the techniques based on model checking(MC) have a series of comparative advantages. However, the temporal logics employed in the existing latter techniques cannot express conveniently the complex attacks with synchronization phenomenon. To address this problem, we formalize a novel temporal logic language called attack signature description language(ASDL). On the basis of it, we put forward an ASDL model checking algorithm. Furthermore, we use ASDL programs, which can be considered as temporal logic formulas,to describe attack signatures, and employ other ASDL programs to create an audit log. As a result, the ASDL model checking algorithm can be presented for automatically verifying whether or not the latter programs satisfy the formulas, that is, whether or not the audit log coincides with the attack signatures. Thus,an intrusion detection algorithm based on ASDL is obtained. The case studies and simulations show that the new method can find coordinated chop-chop attacks.

This problem on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), in attention to their special properties, has more importance. Now, there are some of proposed solutions to protect Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) against different types of intrusions;but no one of them has a comprehensive view to this problem and they are usually designed in single-purpose;but, the proposed design in this paper has been a comprehensive view to this issue by presenting a complete Intrusion Detection Architecture (IDA). The main contribution of this architecture is its hierarchical structure;i.e. it is designed and applicable, in one, two or three levels, consistent to the application domain and its required security level.

Suppositions of the WSN and Intrusion Detection Architecture (IDA) are: static and heterogeneous network, hierarchical, distributed and clustering structure along with clusters' overlapping. Finally, this paper has been designed a questionnaire to verify the proposed idea;then it analyzed and evaluated the acquired results from the questionnaires.
