Automatic Building of a Powerful IDS for The Cloud Based on Deep Neural Network by Using a Novel Combination of Simulated Annealing Algorithm and Improved Self- Adaptive Genetic Algorithm
Cloud computing (CC) is the fastest-growing data hosting and computational technology that stands today as a satisfactory answer to the problem of data storage and computing. Thereby, most organizations are now migratingtheir services into the cloud due to its appealing features and its tangible advantages. Nevertheless, providing privacy and security to protect cloud assets and resources still a very challenging issue. To address the aboveissues, we propose a smart approach to construct automatically an efficient and effective anomaly network IDS based on Deep Neural Network, by using a novel hybrid optimization framework “ISAGASAA”. ISAGASAA framework combines our new self-adaptive heuristic search algorithm called “Improved Self-Adaptive Genetic Algorithm” (ISAGA) and Simulated Annealing Algorithm (SAA). Our approach consists of using ISAGASAA with the aim of seeking the optimal or near optimal combination of most pertinent values of the parametersincluded in building of DNN based IDS or impacting its performance, which guarantee high detection rate, high accuracy and low false alarm rate. The experimental results turn out the capability of our IDS to uncover intrusionswith high detection accuracy and low false alarm rate, and demonstrate its superiority in comparison with stateof-the-art methods
Malware Resistant Data Protection in Hyper-connected Networks: A survey
Data protection is the process of securing sensitive information from being
corrupted, compromised, or lost. A hyperconnected network, on the other hand,
is a computer networking trend in which communication occurs over a network.
However, what about malware. Malware is malicious software meant to penetrate
private data, threaten a computer system, or gain unauthorised network access
without the users consent. Due to the increasing applications of computers and
dependency on electronically saved private data, malware attacks on sensitive
information have become a dangerous issue for individuals and organizations
across the world. Hence, malware defense is critical for keeping our computer
systems and data protected. Many recent survey articles have focused on either
malware detection systems or single attacking strategies variously. To the best
of our knowledge, no survey paper demonstrates malware attack patterns and
defense strategies combinedly. Through this survey, this paper aims to address
this issue by merging diverse malicious attack patterns and machine learning
(ML) based detection models for modern and sophisticated malware. In doing so,
we focus on the taxonomy of malware attack patterns based on four fundamental
dimensions the primary goal of the attack, method of attack, targeted exposure
and execution process, and types of malware that perform each attack. Detailed
information on malware analysis approaches is also investigated. In addition,
existing malware detection techniques employing feature extraction and ML
algorithms are discussed extensively. Finally, it discusses research
difficulties and unsolved problems, including future research directions.Comment: 30 pages, 9 figures, 7 tables, no where submitted ye
