Deep Learning-Based Anomaly Traffic Detection Method in Cloud Computing Environment

Abstract

To address the problem of poor detection performance of existing intrusion detection methods in the environment of high-dimensional massive data with uneven class distribution, a deep learning-based anomaly traffic detection method in cloud computing environment is proposed. First, the fuzzy C -means (FCM) algorithm is introduced and is combined with the general regression neural network (GRNN) to cluster the samples to be classified in the original space by FCM. Then, the GRNN model is trained and the center point is updated using the sample closest to the FCM clustering center until a stable cluster center is obtained. The parameters in FCM-GRNN are optimized using the global optimization feature of the modified fruit fly optimization algorithm (MFOA), and the optimal spread value is found using the three-dimensional search method through an iterative search. Finally, experiments are conducted based on the KDD CUP99 dataset, and the results demonstrate that the detection rate (DR) and false alarm rate (FAR) of the proposed FCM-MFOA-GRNN method are 91% and 1.176%, respectively, which are better than those of the comparison methods. Therefore, the proposed method has good anomaly traffic detection ability.
