An intrusion detection system based on convolution neural network

Abstract

With the rapid extensive development of the Internet, users not only enjoy great convenience but also face numerous serious security problems. The increasing frequency of data breaches has made it clear that the network security situation is becoming increasingly urgent. In the realm of cybersecurity, intrusion detection plays a pivotal role in monitoring network attacks. However, the efficacy of existing solutions in detecting such intrusions remains suboptimal, perpetuating the security crisis. To address this challenge, we propose a sparse autoencoder-Bayesian optimization-convolutional neural network (SA-BO-CNN) system based on convolutional neural network (CNN). Firstly, to tackle the issue of data imbalance, we employ the SMOTE resampling function during system construction. Secondly, we enhance the system’s feature extraction capabilities by incorporating SA. Finally, we leverage BO in conjunction with CNN to enhance system accuracy. Additionally, a multi-round iteration approach is adopted to further refine detection accuracy. Experimental findings demonstrate an impressive system accuracy of 98.36%. Comparative analyses underscore the superior detection rate of the SA-BO-CNN system.
