An Efficient Network Anomaly Detection Approach Based on Autoencoder
摘要
Network anomaly detection is vital as it offers an efficient tool for identifying and preventing cyberattacks. Many researchers have used various autoencoder-based deep learning techniques to enhance network security against such attacks. This study proposes an optimal autoencoder model for detecting abnormal traffic samples more effectively. The selected latent layer dimension significantly impacts the detection performance in our proposed method. We assessed the effectiveness of our suggested method utilizing the NSL-KDD dataset, using metrics of accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score.
