Abstract/Description:
Cyber attack is a strong threat to the digital world. So, it’s very essential to keep the network safe. Network Intrusion Detection system is the system to address this problem. Network Intrusion Detection system functions like a firewall, and monitors incoming and outgoing traffic like ingress and egress filtering fire wall. Network Intrusion Detection System does anomaly and hybrid detection for detecting known and unknown attacks. My thesis discusses about the several network cyber attacks we face nowadays and I created several Deep learning models to detect accurately, I used NSL-KDD dataset which is a popular dataset, that contains several network attacks. After experimenting with different deep learning models I found some disparities in the training accuracy and validation accuracy, which is a clear indication of overfitting. To reduce the overfitting I introduced regularization and dropout in the models and experimented with different hyperparameters.
