A dubiety-determining based model for database cumulated anomaly intrusion

The concept of Cumulated Anomaly (CA), which describes a new type of database anomalies, is addressed. A typical CA intrusion is that when a user who is authorized to modify data records under certain constraints deliberately hides his/her intentions to change data beyond constraints in different operations and different transactions. It happens when some appearing to be authorized and normal transactions lead to certain accumulated results out of given thresholds. The existing intrusion techniques are unable to deal with CAs. This paper proposes a detection model, Dubiety-Determining Model (DDM), for Cumulated Anomaly. This model is mainly based on statistical theories and fuzzy set theories. It measures the dubiety degree, which is presented by a real number between 0 and 1, for each database transaction, to show the likelihood of a transaction to be intrusive. The algorithms used in the DDM are introduced. A DDM-based software architecture has been designed and implemented for monitoring database transactions. The experimental results show that the DDM method is feasible and effective

Water filtration by using apple and banana peels as activated carbon

Water filter is an important devices for reducing the contaminants in raw water. Activated from charcoal is used to absorb the contaminants. Fruit peels are some of the suitable alternative carbon to substitute the charcoal. Determining the role of fruit peels which were apple and banana peels powder as activated carbon in water filter is the main goal. Drying and blending the peels till they become powder is the way to allow them to absorb the contaminants. Comparing the results for raw water before and after filtering is the observation. After filtering the raw water, the reading for pH was 6.8 which is in normal pH and turbidity reading recorded was 658 NTU. As for the colour, the water becomes more clear compared to the raw water. This study has found that fruit peels such as banana and apple are an effective substitute to charcoal as natural absorbent

A BAYESIAN CLASSIFICATION ON ASSET VULNERABILITY FOR REAL TIME REDUCTION OF FALSE POSITIVES IN IDS

IT assets connected on internetwill encounter alien protocols and few parameters of protocol process are exposed as vulnerabilities. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are installed to alerton suspicious traffic or activity. IDS issuesfalse positives alerts, if any behavior construe for partial attack pattern or the IDS lacks environment knowledge. Continuous monitoring of alerts to evolve whether, an alert is false positive or not is a major concern. In this paper we present design of an external module to IDS,to identify false positive alertsbased on anomaly based adaptive learning model. The novel feature of this design is that the system updates behavior profile of assets and environment with adaptive learning process.A mixture model is used for behavior modeling from reference data. The design of the detection and learning process are based on normal behavior and of environment. The anomaly alert identification algorithm isbuiltonSparse Markov Transducers (SMT) based probability.The total process is presented using real-time data. The Experimental results are validated and presentedwith reference to lab environment

A Survey on Attacks and Advances of Intrusion Detection Systems

Now day’s information of an organization floating over the internet that increases the traffic on the network as well as threats from attackers. To protect these sensitive material Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is situated in the scheme. It is an application software program or hardware mechanism that compacts with assaults by assembling information from a mixture of systems and network resources, then analyzing indications of defense dilemmas. Network Intrusion Detection (NID) is a method that efforts to determine unauthorized entrance to a network through analyzing traffic on the network. There are a variety of advances of intrusion detection, for instance Data Mining, Pattern Matching, Machine Learning and Measure Based Methods. This survey paper aims towards the proper learning of intrusion detection system with the intention that researchers could create employ of it and discover the new methods towards intrusions.

The Challenge of Non-Technical Loss Detection using Artificial Intelligence: A Survey

Detection of non-technical losses (NTL) which include electricity theft, faulty meters or billing errors has attracted increasing attention from researchers in electrical engineering and computer science. NTLs cause significant harm to the economy, as in some countries they may range up to 40% of the total electricity distributed. The predominant research direction is employing artificial intelligence to predict whether a customer causes NTL. This paper first provides an overview of how NTLs are defined and their impact on economies, which include loss of revenue and profit of electricity providers and decrease of the stability and reliability of electrical power grids. It then surveys the state-of-the-art research efforts in a up-to-date and comprehensive review of algorithms, features and data sets used. It finally identifies the key scientific and engineering challenges in NTL detection and suggests how they could be addressed in the future
