AI-Based Anomaly Detection and Classification of Traffic Using Netflow

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Anomalies manifest differently in network statistics, making it difficult to develop generalized models for normal network behaviors and anomalies. This paper analyzes various Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) algorithms employing supervised techniques for both binary and multi-class classification of network traffic. Experiments have been conducted using a validated NetFlow-based dataset containing over 31 million incoming and outgoing network connections of an IT infrastructure. Preliminary results indicate that no single model effectively detects all cyber-attacks. However, selected models for binary and multi-class classification show promising results, achieving performance levels of up to 99.9% in the best of the cases.
