The present article addresses main functionality and structure of the genetic algorithms applied for detection of malware network intrusions.The sequence of network connection characteristics is interpreted as a genetic chromosome or an intrusion detection rule.The network characteristics, attributes of the connection are chromosome's genes.An extended list of basic TCP/IP network characteristics and their structure is suggested and illustrated in examples of network connections.The syntax and structure of the chromosomes (rules) coded by terms of bits and integers are presented.The basic chromosome operations in generation of a particular population and experimental assessment of Firas Alabsi's Fitness function are demonstrated.
