Exploiting efficient data mining techniques to enhance intrusion detection systems

- Security is becoming a critical part of organizational information systems. Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is an important detection that is used as a countermeasure to preserve data integrity and system availability from attacks. Data mining is being used to clean, classify, and examine large amount of network data to correlate common infringement for intrusion detection. The main reason for using Data Mining Techniques for Intrusion Detection Systems is due to the enormous volume of existing and newly appearing network data that require processing. The amount of data accumulated each day by a network is huge. Several Data Mining techniques such as clustering, classification, and association rules are proving to be useful for gathering different knowledge for Intrusion Detection. This paper presents the idea of applying data mining techniques to intrusion detection systems to maximize the effectiveness in identifying attacks, thereby helping the users to construct more secure info...
