MINDS - Minnesota Intrusion Detection System

Tags:
network security

Overview This paper introduces the Minnesota Intrusion Detection System (MINDS), which uses a suite of data mining techniques to automatically detect attacks against computer networks and systems. While the long-term objective of MINDS is to address all aspects of intrusion detection, this paper focuses on two specific contributions: an unsupervised anomaly detection technique that assigns a score to each network connection that reflects how anomalous the connection is, and an association pattern analysis based module that summarizes those network connections that are ranked highly anomalous by the anomaly detection module.
