<p>This study proposes a novel artificial intelligence-enabled methodological framework for packet-based network intrusion detection system that effectively analyzes header and payload data and considers temporal connections among packets. The AI framework transforms sequential packets into a two-dimensional image, which is then passed through a convolutional neural network-based intrusion detector model. Experimental results using publicly available data sets demonstrate that the methodology can detect network attacks earlier than flow-based approaches. It also exhibits high transferability and shows promising resilience against adversarial examples.</p>

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
