Intrusion Detection Based on Big Data Fuzzy Analytics

In today’s world, Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is one of the significant tools used to the improvement of network security, by detecting attacks or abnormal data accesses. Most of existing IDS have many disadvantages such as high false alarm rates and low detection rates. For the IDS, dealing with distributed and massive data constitutes a challenge. Besides, dealing with imprecise data is another challenge. This paper proposes an Intrusion Detection System based on big data fuzzy analytics; Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) method is used to cluster and classify the pre-processed training dataset. The CTU-13 and the UNSW-NB15 are used as distributed and massive datasets to prove the feasibility of the method. The proposed system shows high performance in terms of accuracy, precision, detection rates, and false alarms.
