Recently, machine learning methodologies are playing an important role in detecting network intrusions (or attacks), which further helps the network administrator to take precautionary measures for preventing intrusions. In this project report, the authors propose to use various techniques like support vector machine, logistic regression, random forest, decision tree, and a hybrid model using artificial neural networks and random forest. The new hybrid model for network intrusion detection aims to achieve better precision, recall, accuracy, and F1 score. To reify this, combined artificial neural network and random forest algorithms are used. In the hybrid model, ANN works as a feature extractor and random forest as a classifier. The data is provided to ANN and the ANN generates new features on the basis of given input. The new features are then provided to random forest as an input. The random forest then classifies the data into different classes on the basis of new data. Here, KddCup99 dataset has been used to evaluate the models and accuracy achieved in each model.
