Abstract This study introduces an innovative hybrid approach that integrates deep learning with blockchain technology to improve cybersecurity, focusing on network intrusion detection systems (NIDS). The main goal is to overcome the shortcomings of conventional intrusion detection techniques by developing a more flexible and robust security architecture. We use seven unique machine learning models to improve detection skills, emphasizing data quality, traceability, and transparency, facilitated by a blockchain layer that safeguards against data modification and ensures auditability. Our technique employs the Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) to equilibrate the dataset, therefore mitigating prevalent class imbalance difficulties… More >
