Abstract

Network security is an essential element in the day-to-day IT operations of nearly every organization in business. Securing a computer network means considering the threats and vulnerabilities and arrange the countermeasures. Network security threats are increasing rapidly and making wireless network and internet services unreliable and insecure. Intrusion Detection System plays a protective role in shielding a network from potential intrusions. In this research paper, Feed Forward Neural Network and Pattern Recognition Neural Network are designed and tested for the detection of various attacks by using modified KDD Cup99 dataset. In our proposed models, Bayesian Regularization and Scaled Conjugate Gradient, training functions are used to train the Artificial Neural Networks. Various performance measures such as Accuracy, MCC, R-squared, MSE, DR, FAR and AROC are used to evaluate the performance of proposed Neural Network Models. The results have shown that both the models have outperformed each other in different performance measures on different attack detections.
