Evaluation of Bernoulli Naive Bayes model for detection of distributed denial of service attacks
Bulletin of Electrical Engineering and Informatics(2023)
Abstract
Distributed denial of service is a form of cyber-attack that involves sending several network traffic to a target system such as DHCP, domain name server (DNS), and HTTP server. The attack aims to exhaust computing resources such as memory and the processor of a target system by blocking the legitimate users from getting access to the service provided by the server. Network intrusion prevention ensures the security of a network and protects the server from such attacks. Thus, this paper presents a predicitive model that identifies distributed denial of service attacks (DDSA) using Bernoulli-Naive Bayes. The developed model is evaluated on the publicly available Kaggle dataset. The method is tested with a confusion matrix, receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve, and accuracy to measure its performance. The experimental results show an 85.99% accuracy in detecting DDSA with the proposed method. Hence, Bernoulli-Naive Bayes-based method was found to be effective and significant for the protection of network servers from malicious attacks.
