Network Anomaly Detection using Association Rule Mining in Network Packets
Sang‐Hyun Oh, Joong-Hyuk Chang · Journal of the Korea Industrial Information Systems Research · 2009
In previous work, anomaly-based intrusion detection techniques have been widely used to effectively detect various intrusions into a computer. This is because the anomaly-based detection techniques can effectively handle previously unknown intrusion methods. However, most of the previous work assumed that the normal network connections are fixed. For this reason, a new network connection may be regarded as an anomalous event. This paper proposes a new anomaly detection method based on an association-mining algorithm. The proposed method is composed of two phases: intra-packet association mining and inter-packet association mining. The performances of the proposed method are comparatively verified with JAM, which is a conventional representative intrusion detection method.
