Data Mining Techniques for Providing Network Security through Intrusion Detection Systems: a Survey

Abstract

Intrusion Detection Systems are playing major role in network security in this internet world. Many researchers have been introduced number of intrusion detection systems in the past. Even though, no system was detected all kind of attacks and achieved better detection accuracy. Most of the intrusion detection systems are used data mining techniques such as clustering, outlier detection, classification, classification through learning techniques. Most of the researchers have been applied soft computing techniques for making effective decision over the network dataset for enhancing the detection accuracy in Intrusion Detection System. Few researchers also applied artificial intelligence techniques along with data mining algorithms for making dynamic decision. This paper discusses about the number of intrusion detection systems that are proposed for providing network security. Finally, comparative analysis made between the existing systems and suggested some new ideas for enhancing the performance of the existing systems.
