Abstract

The nuisance of distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks has extended unremittingly nowadays. Thus, guaranteeing system availability in this open-ended pandemic is a crucial task. In this work, we propose three different deep learning strategies as a network anomaly-based intrusion detection system (N-IDS) for a DDoS multi-classification task. We built a deep convolutional neural network (CNN), a stacked long short-term memory (S-LSTM) neural network which is a distinct artificial recurrent neural network (RNN), the third model is a hybridisation between CNN and LSTM. Then, we evaluated them on three up to date flow-based datasets: CICIDS2017, CICDDoS2019 and BoT-IoT benchmarks. The outcomes demonstrate that hybrid CNN-LSTM outperforms the existing state-of-the-art schemes in almost all the validation metrics.
