WIDS: a sensor-based online mining wireless intrusion detection system
This paper proposes WIDS, a wireless intrusion detection system, which applies data mining clustering technique to wireless network data captured through hardware sensors for purposes of real time detection of anomalous behavior in wireless packets. Using hardware sensors to capture network packets enables detection of attacks before they reach access points and ensures all packets transmitted in the networks are analyzed for a more complete attack detection. The proposed mining based technique for wireless network intrusion detection contributes by reducing the need for training data, reducing false positives and increasing the effectiveness of attack detection on networks with few (one to twenty) connections. The proposed WIDS design approach involves real time pre-processing of sensor data using a density-based, Local Sparsity Coefficient (LSC) outlier detection algorithm to assign anomaly scores to the connection records. Connection records with low anomaly scores are used as ini...
