Hi there,
I am interested in applying machine learning algorithms in detecting network
intrusions. I read many papers and realized that the KDD-99 is the most
well-known dataset used in the field. However, this dataset is provided by MIT
in 1999, and obviously, its pretty old. As we all know, the defensive
technologies are fast, and also the hacking techniques. Clearly, the KDD-99
dataset would not provide the true representation of a network at the current
time. So, could anyone plz tell me which dataset is more updated, specialized
for machine learning research in IDS?
Thanks
Patrick
Hi, Patrick.
I am using the KDD-99 dataset in my research work. Though it is the most
well-known datasets it has several drawbacks that limits what you can do
with it. As an example, and as you note, the distribution of normal
data and attack data does not represents a true real network.
I think that a better dataset is the original used to generate the
KDD-99 dataset. It can be obtained from www.ll.mit.edu.
