Abstract

The network intrusion detection system is an important tool for protecting computer networks against threats and malicious attacks. Many techniques have recently been proposed; however, these face significant challenges due to the continuous emergence of new threats that are not recognized by existing systems. In this paper, we propose a novel two-stage deep learning (TSDL) model, based on a stacked auto-encoder with a soft-max classifier, for efficient network intrusion detection. The model comprises two decision stages: an initial stage responsible for classifying network traffic as normal or abnormal, using a probability score value. This is then used in the final decision stage as an additional feature, for detecting the normal state and other classes of attacks. The proposed model is able to learn useful feature representations from large amounts of unlabeled data and classifies them automatically and efficiently. To evaluate its effectiveness, several experiments are conducted on two public datasets, specifically the benchmark KDD99 and UNSW-NB15 datasets. Comparative simulation results demonstrate that our proposed model significantly outperforms existing approaches, achieving high recognition rates, up to 99.996% and 89.134%, for the KDD99 and UNSW-NB15 datasets respectively. We conclude that our model has the potential to serve as a future benchmark for the deep learning and network security research communities.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
