The network intrusion detection system (NIDs) is a significant research milestone in information security. NIDs can scan and analyze the network to detect an attack or anomaly, which may be a continuing intrusion or perhaps an intrusion that has just occurred. During the pandemic, cybercriminals realized that home networks lurked with vulnerabilities due to a lack of security and computational limitations. A fundamental difficulty in NIDs is providing an effective, robust, lightweight, and rapid framework to perform real-time intrusion detection. This research proposes an efficient, functional cybersecurity approach based on machine/deep learning algorithms to detect anomalies using lightweight network-based IDs. A lightweight, real-time, network-based anomaly detection system can be used to secure connected IoT devices. The UNSW-NB15 dataset is used to evaluate the proposed approach DeepNet and compare results alongside other state-of-the-art existing techniques. For the classification of network-based anomalies, the proposed model achieves 99.16% accuracy by using all features and 99.14% accuracy after feature reduction. The experimental results show that the network anomalies depend exceptionally on features selected after selection.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
