What is it about?

A new method for host-based intrusion detection. Also a new dataset has been generated for IDS testing.

Why is it important?

(i) IDS public dataset KDD dataset has been used for over nearly 20 years which is not applicable to modern computer systems and attacks. The newly generated ADFA-LD dataset is based on current system and modern attacks. (ii) System call based IDS is most reliable. However, the conventional system call based approaches are based on detecting segments of system calls through sliding widows where connections among segments have been ignored. Our work has addressed this issue.

Perspectives

(i) It provides a timely IDS dataset which can replace widely used and outdated KDD dataset. (ii) It presented a new angle looking at the IDS design in a holistic way.
