Abstract Network anomaly detection plays a vital role in safeguarding network security. However, the existing network anomaly detection task is typically based on the one-class zero-positive scenario. This approach is susceptible to overfitting during the training process due to discrepancies in data distribution between the training set and the test set. This phenomenon is known as prediction drift. Additionally, the rarity of anomaly data, often masked by normal data, further complicates network anomaly detection. To address these challenges, we propose the PUNet network, which ingeniously combines the strengths of traditional machine learning and deep learning techniques… More >

Abstract The rapid growth of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has brought numerous benefits to the interconnected world. However, the ubiquitous nature of IoT networks exposes them to various security threats, including anomaly intrusion attacks. In addition, IoT devices generate a high volume of unstructured data. Traditional intrusion detection systems often struggle to cope with the unique characteristics of IoT networks, such as resource constraints and heterogeneous data sources. Given the unpredictable nature of network technologies and diverse intrusion methods, conventional machine-learning approaches seem to lack efficiency. Across numerous research domains, deep learning techniques have demonstrated… More >

Abstract As the scale of the networks continually expands, the detection of distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks has become increasingly vital. We propose an intelligent detection model named IGED by using improved generalized entropy and deep neural network (DNN). The initial detection is based on improved generalized entropy to filter out as much normal traffic as possible, thereby reducing data volume. Then the fine detection is based on DNN to perform precise DDoS detection on the filtered suspicious traffic, enhancing the neural network’s generalization capabilities. Experimental results show that the proposed method can efficiently distinguish More >

Abstract With the popularisation of intelligent power, power devices have different shapes, numbers and specifications. This means that the power data has distributional variability, the model learning process cannot achieve sufficient extraction of data features, which seriously affects the accuracy and performance of anomaly detection. Therefore, this paper proposes a deep learning-based anomaly detection model for power data, which integrates a data alignment enhancement technique based on random sampling and an adaptive feature fusion method leveraging dimension reduction. Aiming at the distribution variability of power data, this paper developed a sliding window-based data adjustment method for… More >

Abstract Aiming at the problems of low accuracy and slow convergence speed of current intrusion detection models, SpiralConvolution is combined with Long Short-Term Memory Network to construct a new intrusion detection model. The dataset is first preprocessed using solo thermal encoding and normalization functions. Then the spiral convolution-Long Short-Term Memory Network model is constructed, which consists of spiral convolution, a two-layer long short-term memory network, and a classifier. It is shown through experiments that the model is characterized by high accuracy, small model computation, and fast convergence speed relative to previous deep learning models. The model More >

Abstract 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… More >

Abstract The extensive utilization of the Internet in everyday life can be attributed to the substantial accessibility of online services and the growing significance of the data transmitted via the Internet. Regrettably, this development has expanded the potential targets that hackers might exploit. Without adequate safeguards, data transmitted on the internet is significantly more susceptible to unauthorized access, theft, or alteration. The identification of unauthorised access attempts is a critical component of cybersecurity as it aids in the detection and prevention of malicious attacks. This research paper introduces a novel intrusion detection framework that utilizes Recurrent… More >
