Chokidar

This is application is simplified intrusion detection system which using machine learning techniques to detect malicious network traffic. It captures real-time network traffic data, then it generates flows from this data. Training machine learning model using flows rather than raw packet data greatly improves the accuracy. In addition to that, it uses individual models for DoS, DDoS and port scan attacks. It also have one model to detect abnormal traffic. This approach enables application to detect DoS, DDoS and Port Scan with high accuracy and one extra model ensures that IDS also detects unknown attacks. It also have minimal GUI displaying necessary information to the user.

Build

Pre-requisites

Linux

git clone https://github.com/hitanshu-mehta/anomaly_based_intrusion_detection_system.git
cd Intrusion-Detection-using-machine-learning-techniques
python3 -m build.py

New folder named build will be created in the parent directory.

build
├── bin
├── CMakeFiles
└── src

Executable file named IDS will be in the bin directory. Open terminal and run executable.

sudo ./IDS

Note that model folder should be in the same directory while running the executable.

we need to run executable as root in order to capture traffic in promiscuous mode.
