Analysis of Machine Learning Techniques Based Intrusion Detection Systems

Attacks on Computer Networks are one of the major threats on using Internet these days. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are one of the security tools available to detect possible intrusions in a Network or in a Host. Research showed that application of machine learning techniques in intrusion detection could achieve high detection rate as well as low false positive rate. This paper discusses some commonly used machine learning techniques in Intrusion Detection System and also reviews some of the existing machine learning IDS proposed by authors at different times.
