Abstract: The connectivity of devices through the internet plays a remarkable role in our daily lives. Many network-based applications are utilized in different domains, e.g., health care, smart environments, and businesses. These applications offer a wide range of services and provide services to large groups. Therefore, the safety of network-based applications has always been an area of research interest for academia and industry alike. The evolution of deep learning has enabled us to explore new areas of research. Hackers make use of the vulnerabilities in networks and attempt to gain access to confidential systems and information. This information and access to systems can be very harmful and portray losses beyond comprehension. Therefore, detection of these network intrusions is of the utmost importance. Deep learning-based techniques require minimal inputs while exploring every possible feature set in the network. Thus, in this paper, we present a hybrid CNN+LSTM deep learning model for the detection of network intrusions. In this research, we detect DDOS types of network intrusions, i.e., R2L, R2R, Prob, and which belong to the active attack category, and PortScan, which falls in the passive attack category. For this purpose, we used the benchmark CICIDS2017 dataset for conducting the experiments and achieved an accuracy of 99.82% as demonstrated in the experimental results.
