By sending periodically short bursts of traffic to reduce legit transmission control protocol (TCP) traffic, the low-rate denial of service (LDoS) attacks are hard to be detected and may endanger covertly a network for a long period. Traditionally, LDoS detecting methods mainly concentrate on the attack stream with feature matching, and only a limited number of attack patterns can be detected off-line with high cost. Recent researches divert focus from the attack stream to the traffic anomalies induced by LDoS attacks, which can detect more kinds of attacks with higher efficiency. However, the limited number of abnormal characteristics and the inadequacy of judgment rules may cause wrong decision in some particular situations. In this paper, we address the problem of detecting LDoS attacks and present a scheme based on the fluctuant features of legit TCP and acknowledgment (ACK) traffic. In the scheme, we define judgment criteria which used to identify LDoS attacks in real time at an optimal detection cost. We evaluate the performance of our strategy in real-world network topologies. Simulations results clearly demonstrate the superiority of the method proposed in detecting LDoS attacks.

With the global rise of digital data, the uncontrolled quantity of data is susceptible to cyber warfare or cyber attacks. Therefore, it is necessary to improve cyber security systems. This research studies the behavior of malicious acts and uses Higuchi Fractal Dimension (HFD), which is a non-linear mathematical method to examine the intricacy of the behavior of these malicious acts and anomalies within the cyber physical system. The HFD algorithm was tested successfully using synthetic time series network data and validated on real-time network data, producing accurate results. It was found that the highest fractal dimension value was computed from the DoS attack time series data. Furthermore, the difference in the HFD values between the DoS attack data and the normal traffic data was the highest. The malicious network data and the non-malicious network data were successfully classified using the Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) method in conjunction with a scaling stationary index that helps to boost the ROC technique in classifying normal and malicious traffic. Hence, the suggested methodology may be utilized to rapidly detect the existence of abnormalities in traffic with the aim of further using other methods of cyber-attack detection.

In this paper, we present a real-time system to detect abnormal events on gas pipes, based on the signals which are observed through the audio sensors attached on them. First, features are extracted from these signals so that they are robust to noise and invariant to the distance between a sensor and a spot at which an abnormal event like an attack on the gas pipes occurs. Then, a classifier is constructed to detect abnormal events using neural networks. It is a combination of two neural network models, a Gaussian mixture model and a multi-layer perceptron, for the reduction of miss and false alarms. The former works for miss alarm prevention and the latter for false alarm prevention. The experimental result with real data from the actual gas system shows that the proposed system is effective in detecting the dangerous events in real-time with an accuracy of 92.9%.

Web application services have diversified. At the same time, research on intrusion detection is continuing due to the surge of cyber threats. Also, As a single-defense system evolves into multi-level security, we are responding to specific intrusions by correlating security events that have become vast. However, it is difficult to check the OS, service, web application type and version of the target system in real time, and intrusion detection events occurring in network-based security devices can not confirm vulnerability of the target system and success of the attack A blind spot can occur for threats that are not analyzed for problems and associativity. In this paper, we propose the validation of effectiveness for intrusion detection events using TF-IDF. The proposed scheme extracts the response traffics by mapping the response of the target system corresponding to the attack. Then, Response traffics are divided into lines and weights each line with an TF-IDF weight. we checked the valid intrusion detection events by sequentially examining the lines with high weights.

With the rapid development of IT technology, integration with existing industries has led to an increase in smart manufacturing that simplifies processes and increases productivity based on 4th industrial revolution technology. Security threats are also increasing and there are. In the case of supply chain attacks, it is difficult to detect them in advance and the scale of the damage is extremely large, so they have emerged as next-generation security threats, and research into detection technology is necessary. Therefore, in this paper, we collect, store, analyze, and visualize logs in multiple environments in real time using ELK Stack and Sysmon, which are open source-based analysis solutions, to derive information such as abnormal behavior related to supply chain attacks, and efficiently We try to provide an effective detection method.

The performance of a network intrusion detection system using the machine learning method depends heavily on the composition and the size of the feature set. The detection accuracy, such as the detection rate or the false positive rate, of the system relies on the feature composition. And the time it takes to train and detect depends on the size of the feature set. Therefore, in order to enable the system to detect intrusions in real-time, the feature set to beused should have a small size as well as an appropriate composition. In this paper, we show that the size of the feature set can be further reduced without decreasing the detection rate through using Pearson correlation coefficient between features along with the multi-objective genetic algorithm which was used to shorten the size of the feature set in previous work. For the evaluation of the proposed method, the experiments to classify 10 kinds of attacks and benign traffic are performed against NSL_KDD data set.

Since the Network based attack Is extensive in the real state of damage, It is very important to detect intrusion quickly at the beginning. But the intrusion detection using supervised learning needs either the preprocessing enormous data or the manager's analysis. Also it has two difficulties to detect abnormal traffic that the manager's analysis might be incorrect and would miss the real time detection. In this paper, we propose a traffic attributes correlation analysis mechanism based on self-organizing maps(SOM) for the real-time intrusion detection. The proposed mechanism has three steps. First, with unsupervised learning build a map cluster composed of similar traffic. Second, label each map cluster to divide the map into normal traffic and abnormal traffic. In this step there is a rule which is created through the correlation analysis with SOM. At last, the mechanism would the process real-time detecting and updating gradually. During a lot of experiments the proposed mechanism has good performance in real-time intrusion to combine of unsupervised learning and supervised learning than that of supervised learning.

DNS amplification is a new type of DDoS Attack and nowadays the attack occurs frequently. The previous studies showed the several detection ways such as the traffic analysis based on DNS queries and packet size. However, those methods have some limitations such as the uncertainty of packet size which depends on IP address type and vulnerabilities against distributed amplification attack. Therefore, we proposed a novel traffic analyzing algorithm using Success Rate and implemented the query analyzing system.

System(IDS) hasn't Protection capability for various security attacks perfectly. Because, It is probably affected by IDS's workload caused by treating all kind of the characteristics and attack patterns of system and can't probe all of the attack types being intelligently different with attack patterns. In this paper, we propose a new taxonomy criteria about DoS(denial of service attacks) to make more efficient and new real time probing system. It's started with an idea that most of the goal oriented systems make the state of system operation more unambiguous than general purpose system. A new event caused the state of the system operation to change and classifying a category of the new events may contribute to design the IDS.

As IoT devices are widely used at home, IoT automation system that is integrate IoT devices for users' demand are gaining populrity. There is automation rule in IoT automation system that is collecting event and command action. But attacker delay the packet and make time that real state is inconsistent with state recongnized by the system. During the time, the system does not work correctly by predefined automation rule. There is proposed some detection method for delay attack, they have limitations for application to IoT systems that are sensitive to traffic volume and battery consumption. This paper proposes a practical packet delay attack detection technique that can be applied to IoT systems. The proposal scheme in this paper can recognize that, for example, when a sensor transmits an message, an broadcast packet notifying the transmission of a message is sent to the Server recognized that event has occurred. For evaluation purposes, an IoT system implemented using Raspberry Pi was configured, and it was demonstrated that the system can detect packet delay attacks within an average of 2.2 sec. The experimental results showed a power consumption Overhead of an average of 2.5 mA per second and a traffic Overhead of 15%. We demonstrate that our method can detect delay attack efficiently compared to preciously proposed method.
