Machine Learning Approach for Intrusion Detection on Cloud Virtual Machines

Amjad Hussain Bhat, Sabyasachi Patra, Debasish Jena · 2013

Development of the cloud computing in recent years is increasing rapidly and gained great success, its security issues have got more and more attention. Many challenges in cloud computation increase the threat of data and service availability. There is need of many security services in order to improve cloud security for users as well as providers. In this paper, we propose a Anomaly Intrusion Detection System using machine learning approach for virtual machines on cloud computing. Our proposal is feature selection over events from Virtual Machine Monitor to detect anomaly in parallel to training the system so it will learn new threats and update the model. The experiment has been carried out on NSL-KDD’99 datasets using Naive Bayes Tree (NB Tree) Classifier and hybrid approach of NB Tree and Random Forest.
