Non-intrusive anomaly detection for encrypted networks

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The use of encryption is steadily increasing. Packet payloads that are encrypted are becoming increasingly difficult to analyze using IDSs. This investigation uses a new non-intrusive IDS approach to detect network intrusions using a K-Means clustering methodology. It was found that this approach was able to detect many intrusions for these datasets while maintaining the encrypted confidentiality of packet information. This work utilized the KDD '99 and NSL-KDD evaluation datasets for testing.
