Enhancing ML-Based DoS Attack Detection Through Combinatorial Fusion Analysis
This work addresses the need for better defense mechanisms against DoS attacks for online service security, though it appears incremental as it builds on existing ML-based detection methods.
The paper tackled the problem of enhancing DoS attack detection by proposing a combinatorial fusion method that combines multiple ML models, resulting in improved performance as measured by metrics like precision, recall, and F1-score.
Mitigating Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks is vital for online service security and availability. While machine learning (ML) models are used for DoS attack detection, new strategies are needed to enhance their performance. We suggest an innovative method, combinatorial fusion, which combines multiple ML models using advanced algorithms. This includes score and rank combinations, weighted techniques, and diversity strength of scoring systems. Through rigorous evaluations, we demonstrate the effectiveness of this fusion approach, considering metrics like precision, recall, and F1-score. We address the challenge of low-profiled attack classification by fusing models to create a comprehensive solution. Our findings emphasize the potential of this approach to improve DoS attack detection and contribute to stronger defense mechanisms.
