Abstract

Efficient intrusion detection algorithms are required for network traffic learning patterns in order to protect advanced network communication channels. These systems can be used to detect normal and unusual patterns, signatures, and rule violations. In recent years, conventional and deep machine learning algorithms have been utilized in the field of network intrusion detection for network traffic learning systems. The use of machine learning opens up new attack surfaces that are very intriguing to investigate. Attackers can introduce noisy data into training data to influence testing patterns in computer networks. The goal of this work is to create an efficient intrusion detection solution for network traffic learning patterns using a supervised and unsupervised technique. We developed an effective intrusion detection system (IDs) using an appropriate NSLKDD dataset for network traffic patterns. The model was trained and evaluated using the Genetic Optimization Algorithm (GOA) and the Niave Bayesian technique to recognize usual and unexpected network traffic patterns. We created a strategy that begins with a random population and subsequent iterates through the fitness function, returning the best parents with high detection accuracy. The best parents were determined using the n-parameters iterated by the crossover and mutation procedures. A cross over function was created to combine genes from two fitness parents by randomly selecting portions from each parent. The individual components of the crossover offsprings are randomly flipped to achieve the mutation. The fitness of the previous generation was obtained to generate a new generation, and this process was repeated n times. This was created to detect network intrusions using Nave Bayes' binary categorization problem and evolutionary algorithms. We accomplished this task by aggregating noise into training set before broadcasting the average number, and it is critical not to have that public average too frequently. The experimental results reveal that our proposed GA fared better than the NB technique, with a detection accuracy of 95.0% versus a recommendable detection accuracy of 53.0%.
