Abstract: Cyber Physical Systems (CPSs) are network systems containing cyber (computation, communication) and physical (sensors, actuators) components that interact with each other through feedback loop with the help of human intervention. The dynamic and disseminated characteristics of CPS environment makes it vulnerable to threats that exist in virtualization process. Due to this, several security issues are presented in CPS. In order to address the challenges, there is a need exists to extend the conventional security solutions such as Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) to handle high speed network data traffic and adaptive network pattern in cloud. Additionally, the identification of feasible network traffic characteristics is the main issue in precise detection of attacks in the network. With this motivation, the current research paper presents an Optimal Deep Belief Network-based distributed Intrusion Detection System (ODBN-IDS) for secure CPS environment. The proposed model pre-process the cloud network traffic data to improve its quality to next level. Here, a Binary Flower Pollination Algorithm (BFPA) is employed for feature selection process. The attained characteristics are used in optimal Deep Belief Networks (DBN) to detect the presence of intrusion in cloud data and produce alarms, in case of presence of intrusions. Equilibrium Optimizer Algorithm (EOA) is used to fine tune the hyperparameters in DBN model. A detailed set of simulations was conducted on benchmark datasets and the analysis results were compared. A detailed comparison was conducted for various models to satisfy the security requirements of cloud network and the results established the supremacy of the proposed ODBN-IDS model.

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) integrates the computation process and physical processes. Embedded computers and networks can observe and handle the physical processes with feedback loops, where physical processes influence the computation process and vice versa [1]. It enables the functioning of numerous independent virtual networks through a common framework. Among the cloud components such as internal, external, and virtual networks, the internal network enables the communication among distinct cloud mechanisms like network servers, management systems, storage systems, etc. External network is a main interface between back end (cloud service provider) and front end (cloud user) [2]. Virtual network enables the communication between Virtual Machine (VM) and similar physical server. Virtual network provides an effective cloud service to the user. But, the vulnerabilities in current network technology followed by dynamic and distributed nature of cloud invite a number of privacy problems. Especially, the distribution of network structure increases the vulnerability in Address Resolution Protocol (ARP), Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), Internet Protocol (IP), Domain Name System (DNS) servers, and so on. In addition to these, virtual network has other vulnerabilities too such as poor network isolation between Virtual Machines (VMs), poor design, vSwitch software bugs, bugs in network protocols, open ports, and insecure network channels [3,4]. When these vulnerable areas are exploited in an effective manner, it results in different types of attacks such as port scanning, network probing, Denial of Service (DoS) attack, spoofing, sniffing, etc. Intrusion might be any sort of malicious activity that tries to influence the availability, integrity, and confidentiality of computing services and resources. Intrusion Detection System (IDS) monitors network system activities or traffic to detect malicious activities. Network IDS (NIDS), present in cloud, monitors the network traffic to identify malicious activities that hijack the privacy of cloud resources [5]. There have been various studies conducted till now to find the intrusion in cloud network intrusion. Fig. 1 depicts the infrastructure of IDS technique.
Figure 1: Structure of IDS
Indeed, it is important for all the IDSs to use an appropriate feedback method and take an ultimate decision regarding the suspected intrusions afterward obtaining feedback from the consulted IDSs about the suspected intrusions. This sort of aggregation method is generally expensive in terms of computational time and other factors like IDS expertise and trust levels, number of consulted IDS, etc. [6]. Furthermore, there is no guarantee for simultaneous receipt of the feedbacks due to uneven IDS connection, internet speed and other factors (like compromised IDSs, busy IDSs, etc.) [7]. In the event of missing feedbacks from individual IDS, the decision to, either or not, increase an alarm about the suspected intrusion can be delayed for a long time. Thus, the decision taken by collective IDS is ineffectual in real-time settings, which makes it unsustainable [8–10].
In this background, the current study presents an Optimal Deep Belief Network-based distributed Intrusion Detection System (ODBN-IDS) for secure CPS environment. The proposed model pre-process the cloud network traffic data to enhance the quality of data to next level. Here, Binary Flower Pollination algorithm (BFPA) is used for feature selection process. The characteristics attained are employed in optimal Deep Belief Network (DBN) to detect the presence of intrusion in cloud data and produce alarm in case of presence of intrusions. Equilibrium Optimizer Algorithm (EOA) performs the hyperparameter tuning of DBN model. In order to compare and contrast the results of the proposed methods against existing models, a detailed set of simulations was conducted on benchmark datasets.
Rest of the paper is planned as follows. Section 2 discusses about the works related to this domain, Section 3 details about the proposed model, Section 4 gives the results of the analysis, and Section 5 draws conclusion for the study.
Abusitta et al. [11] presented a Machine Learning (ML)-based collective IDS that effectually leverages historic feedbacks to make proactive decisions. Especially, the presented method depends on Denoising Autoencoder (DA) which is utilized as an element to create Deep Neural Network (DNN). The strength of DA lies in its capability on how to recreate the IDSs’ feedback from partial feedbacks. It enables the users to take proactive decisions about the suspected intrusion, even in the absence of comprehensive feedbacks from IDSs. DNN architecture has two main types such as Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Both are commonly used in improving the efficiency of IDS. In the study conducted earlier [12], systematic comparisons were made between RNN and CNN on DL-based IDS with an aim to provide elementary guidance for the selection of DNN. Hajimirzaei et al. [13] presented novel IDS-based Artificial Bee Colony (ABC), Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), and fuzzy clustering methods. Normal and abnormal network traffic packets are recognized by MLP, although MLP is trained using ABC method by enhancing the value of connection biases and weights.
Alghamdi et al. [14] developed an edge-cloud deep IDS method in Lambda framework to resolve the security issues found in IoT. This method reduces the time taken for training phase than conventional ML techniques and increases the precision of true positive-detected attacks. Moreover, Neural Network (NN) layer leads the DL method to attain effective flexibility and performance than traditional ML algorithm. Krishnaveni et al. [15] proposed an effective IDS for cloud using ensemble feature classification and selection methods. The presented technique depends on univariate ensemble Feature Selection (FS) method and is utilized for reduced feature set selection from the provided data sets. The ensemble classifier could effectively combine the individual classifier to yield strong classifiers using the voting method. An ensemble-based technique efficiently categorizes the network traffic behaviour as either normal or an attacked one.
In this study, a new ODBN-IDS technique is developed for detection and classification of intrusions under CPS environment. The proposed model performs the pre-processing of cloud network traffic data to improve its quality to a next level. Secondly, BFPA is applied to choose the optimal feature subsets from cloud data. Thirdly, DBN model is utilized to detect and categorize the intrusions that exist in the network. Finally, EOA is utilized to tune the parameters involved in DBN model. Fig. 2 illustrates the overall processes involved in ODBN-IDS technique.
Figure 2: Overall process of ODBN-IDS technique
At first, the cloud traffic data is preprocessed and the input values are normalized. To accomplish this, min-max normalization technique is followed. Besides, the training process of NN can be enhanced by preprocessing the network input data and target data. This is then used for rescaling the output or features from one range of values into another range. Besides, the features are scaled as either [0, 1] or [−1, 1] and is defined as follows.
where (ymax − ymin) = 0; when (xmax − xmin) = 0.
3.2 Design of BFPA-Based Feature Selection Technique
Once the input data completes pre-processing stage, BFPA technique is utilized to derive an optimal subset of features.
In 2012, Yang presented a natural simulation technique named FPA [16] which is simulated alike the pollination procedure of flowering plants. This technique has an important point to consider i.e., being an optimization technique, it helps in reproduction of the plant through optimum procedures. FPA has four fundamental principles (Yang, 2012) to follow as given herewith.
1) Biotic and cross-pollination are regarded as global pollination procedures with pollen-carrying pollinators implementing Lévy Flight (LF) method.
2) Abiotic and self-pollination are regarded as local pollination procedures.
3) Flower stability is regarded as reproduction probabilities that are proportional to similarity of the two flowers contained.
4) Local as well as global pollinations are led by switching the probabilities, p ∈ [0, 1]. According to physical proximity and other factors like wind, local pollination has an important fraction i.e., p from the entire pollination activity.
During global pollination step (Rules, 1 and 3), the flower pollens are implemented by pollinators like insects. The pollens travel a long distance in line with LF distributions. Global pollination is generally written as follows.
where,
where
Local pollination (Rule 2) is signified as follows

Therefore, Eqs. (1) and (3) are exchanged by the subsequent formula.

3.3 Design of ODBN Model for Intrusion Detection and Classification
In this final stage, ODBN model is utilized for detection and categorization of intrusions in the network. DBN is a vital model in DL [18]. It is a probabilistic generative method which is a series of Restricted Boltzmann Machine (RBM) units. There is no linkage present amongst the neural units with other layers of RBM method. Further, all neural units from the visible layer are linked with all other neural units from the hidden layer. In addition, the resultant of every RBM layer is utilized as an input for next layer. The bottom layer of DBN method implements a multi-layer RBM framework. The greedy technique is utilized to train the instance data in a layer-by-layer fashion. The parameters, achieved by training the primary layer RBM, are utilized as input for secondary layer RBM. The parameters of all layers are attained by analogy. The trained procedure appears to be unsupervised learning. The combined configuration energy of visible as well as hidden layers from RBM is represented herewith.
where θ = {wij, ai, bj} and it denotes the linking weight value between visible i as well as hidden unit j, ai refers to internal bias of visible layer neurons, and bj represents the hidden layer. Once the parameter θ is set dependent upon energy functions, the combined probability distribution of visible as well as hidden layers are attained in Eq. (8) which are related with Eq. (9) as follows
Once the state of visible layer ν is recognized, the activation probabilities of jth neural units of hidden layer h are attained.
If hidden layer h is recognized, then the activation probabilities of ith neural units of visible layer ν are reached.
where
In unsupervised learning procedure, the solution obtained from the trained RBM is to be used for model parameter that is provided as log-likelihood function given herewith.
During training procedure, sampling techniques are usually utilized for estimation due to difficult computation of normalized factor
EOA technique was initially presented by Faramarzi et al. [19]. It is simulated as a control volume mass balance method that is executed according to the evolution of dynamic as well as equilibrium states. In EOA, all the individuals (solution) with their concentration C (position) are considered as search agents. During EOA, all the individuals in a population are same as the solution whereas an individual concentration is the same as a particle place from Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique. In EOA, the place is upgraded as follows.
where V is determined as the unit, Ce represents the equilibrium candidate and F and G stands for exponential term as well as generation rate correspondingly. λ = (λ1, λ2, …, λn)T implies the arbitrary vector between 0 and 1 and n represents the amount of dimensions of individual attentiveness, C.
The equilibrium condition represents the last convergence state of EOA. The equilibrium pool has five individuals [20].
But, for multi-objective optimization problem, there is generally a group of alternative trade-offs amongst this objective. The external repository solution is considered as an equilibrium candidate. The equilibrium pool from DMOEOA is demonstrated herewith.
where Rep implies the external repository and Rep stands for retaining the historical data of non-dominated solutions initiated together with entire search procedure. All the individuals during complete iterations upgrade their concentration, C (place) with roulette wheel selective amongst equilibrium candidate Ce. Further, there is an equilibrium candidate with similar value from the equilibrium pool which is less possibly chosen for guiding the particle from the population. The above selective technique is capable of maintaining the diversity of attained solutions from search procedure. The concentration upgrading rule is mostly controlled by the exponential term, F.
where t refers to the function of iteration, t reduces with number of iterations and iter and IT imply the existing and maximal iterations correspondingly. a2 stands for constant value that controls the exploitation capability of EOA. To obtain maximum convergence by slowing down the search speed, t0 is determined as follows.
where a1 represents the constant value which affects the exploration capability, sign (r0 − 0.5) is executed to control exploration as well as exploitation phases, r0 stands for arbitrary number between zero and one. In this case, the values of a1 and a2 are fixed as 2 and 1 correspondingly. The selection of two values are consistent with novel EOA technique. So, the exponential term F is expressed as follows
Generation rate roles plays a vital role in equilibrium technique. It can be utilized in enhancing the exploitation capability of EOA.
where G0 defines the primary value. Generation rate Control Probability (GCP) and Generation Probability (GP) are fixed to be 0.5 based on novel EOA technique. r1 and r2 stand for two arbitrary numbers between zero and one. κ refers to the decay vector. This analysis considers κ = λ. Therefore, the generation rate is expressed as follows.
