Abstract

Intrusion detection is very essential in the field of information security. The cornerstone of an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is to accurately identify different attacks in a network. In this paper, a deep learning system to detect intrusions is proposed. The existing recurrent neural network (RNN-IDS) based IDS is expanded to include Long Short term memory (LSTM) and the results are compared. The binary classification performance of the RNN-IDS is tested with various learning rates and using different number of hidden nodes. The results show that by integrating LSTM with RNN-IDS, the accuracy of intrusion prediction has improved against the benchmark dataset.
