Intrusion Detection
Systems (IDS)
Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are designed to identify and
report malicious activity on a network or host system. They play a
crucial role in cybersecurity by detecting suspicious patterns and
preventing potential attacks.
Limitations of Traditional
IDS Approaches
Traditional IDS approaches, based on signature-based detection
and rule-based systems, often struggle to detect novel attacks and
are prone to false positives.

Machine Learning in IDS: Advantages and
Challenges
Machine learning (ML) offers a powerful alternative to traditional IDS methods, enabling the detection of previously
unknown attack patterns and improving adaptability.

Advantages Challenges

Enhanced detection of zero-day attacks. Requires substantial labeled data for training.

Improved adaptability to evolving threats. Can be complex to implement and maintain.

Reduced false positives. May be vulnerable to adversarial attacks.
