Network Intrusion Detection Using Deep Reinforcement Learning, Hamed T. Sanusi

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This thesis delves into cybersecurity by applying Deep Reinforcement(DRL) Learning in network intrusion detection. One advantage of DRL is the ability to adapt to changing network conditions and evolving attack methods, making it a promising solution for addressing the challenges involved in intrusion detection. The thesis will also discuss the obstacles and benefits of using Classification methods for network intrusion detection and the need for high-quality training data. To train and test our proposed method, the NSL-KDD dataset was used and then adjusted by converting it from a multi-classification to a binary classification, achieved by joining all attacks into one. …
