A Hybrid Approach for an Interpretable and Explainable Intrusion Detection System
share
Cybersecurity has been a concern for quite a while now. In the latest years, cyberattacks have been increasing in size and complexity, fueled by significant advances in technology. Nowadays, there is an unavoidable necessity of protecting systems and data crucial for business continuity. Hence, many intrusion detection systems have been created in an attempt to mitigate these threats and contribute to a timelier detection. This work proposes an interpretable and explainable hybrid intrusion detection system, which makes use of artificial intelligence methods to achieve better and more long-lasting security. The system combines experts' written rules and dynamic knowledge continuously generated by a decision tree algorithm as new shreds of evidence emerge from network activity.
