Abstract

With the prevalent technology like cloud computing, big data and Internet of things (IoT), a huge amount of data have been generated day by day. Presently, most of the data are stored in the digital form and transfer to others by the mean of digital communication media. Hence, to provide security to data and network is one of the main concerns for everyone. Several intrusion detection systems (IDS) have been proposed in the last few years, but accuracy and false alarm rate are still most challenges issue for the researchers. Nowadays, an intruder is used to design new types of attack day by day, which is challenging to identify. Recently, machine learning is emerging as the most powerful tool for the development of IDS. This paper discusses three different machine learning approach, namely decision tree, random forest and support vector machine (SVM). KDD-99 dataset is used to train the model. Due to the unbalance data and duplicate feature, recursive feature extraction technique is being used to reduce the number of features. The experiment result shows that proposed IDS performs well as compared to the base model with the accuracy of 99.1.
