Important Features of CICIDS-2017 Dataset For Anomaly Detection in High Dimension and Imbalanced Class Dataset

The growth in internet traffic volume presents a new issue in anomaly detection, one of which is the high data dimension. The feature selection technique has been proven to be able to solve the problem of high data dimension by producing relevant features. On the other hand, high-class imbalance is a problem in feature selection. In this study, two feature selection approaches are proposed that are able to produce the most ideal features in the high-class imbalanced dataset. CICIDS-2017 is a reliable dataset that has a problem in high-class imbalance, therefore it is used in this study. Furthermore, this study performs experiments in Information Gain feature selection technique on the imbalance class datasaet. For validation, the Random Forest classification algorithm is used, because of its ability to handle multi-class data. The experimental results show that the proposed approaches have a very surprising performance, and surpass the state-of-the-art methods

Enhanced Deep Learning Intrusion Detection in IoT Heterogeneous Network with Feature Extraction

Heterogeneous network is one of the challenges that must be overcome in Internet of Thing Intrusion Detection System (IoT IDS). The difficulty of the IDS significantly is caused by various devices, protocols, and services, that make the network becomes complex and difficult to monitor. Deep learning is one algorithm for classifying data with high accuracy. This research work incorporated Deep Learning into IDS for IoT heterogeneous networks. There are two concerns on IDS with deep learning in heterogeneous IoT networks, i.e.: limited resources and excessive training time. Thus, this paper uses Principle Component Analysis (PCA) as features extraction method to deal with data dimensions so that resource usage and training time will be significantly reduced. The results of the evaluation show that PCA was successful reducing resource usage with less training time of the proposed IDS with deep learning in heterogeneous networks environment. Experiment results show the proposed IDS achieve overall accuracy above 99%
