The Problem of Improving Network Intrusion Detection Using a Hybrid CNN LSTM Deep Learning Model: A Cyber Security Perspective
摘要
As the world rushes into an era of an exponentially growing networked infrastructure and digital infrastructure, cyber security threats such as intrusion attempts, malware, and denial-of-service (DoS) have become more refined. Intrusion detection systems (IDSs) traditionally are not able to identify new and sophisticated threats in real-time though. This research presents a hybrid deep learning model, which combines the Convolutional Neural network with the Long Short Term Memory network for a better detection rate of network intrusion. The proposed CNN-LSTM architecture is tested on NSL-KDD dataset which exhibits superior performance when considering precision, recall and F1-score when compared to traditional machine learning classifiers.
