Abstract
In this paper, we employed two machine learning algorithms – namely, a clustering and a neural network algorithm – to analyze the network traffic recorded from three sources. Of the three sources, two of the traffic sources were synthetic, which means the traffic was generated in a controlled environment for intrusion detection benchmarking. The main objective of the analysis is to determine the differences between synthetic and real-world traffic, however the analysis methodology detailed in this paper can be employed for general network analysis purposes. Moreover the framework, which we employed to generate one of the two synthetic traffic sources, is briefly discussed.
