  Abstract ▼

  The article is devoted to solving the scientific problem of protecting confidential information
  in the Internet based on the algorithm for clustering significant amounts of data. The protection of
  a computer network confidential information is a hot topic for research, especially in connection
  with the growing use of information technology and the increase in data of valuable information
  stored in the Internet. With the growth of information responsibility, the need for effective methods
  of computer networks information security has become critical. In this scientific article, the authors
  propose a solution to the problem of protecting computer networks confidential information
  based on the big data clustering algorithm. Traditional intrusion detection methods have limitations
  such as the ability to work only with one- or two-dimensional data, and also have a strong
  reliance on prior knowledge. To eliminate these limitations, the authors propose a heuristic intrusion
  detection algorithm that uses clustering based on a cloud model. The proposed algorithm
  takes advantage of both labeled and unlabeled samples for data clustering, thereby reducing reliance
  on a priori knowledge. The results of a computational experiment carried out on the proposed
  algorithm were compared with several canonical intrusion detection algorithms. The results
  showed that the proposed algorithm improved the performance of the intrusion detection system,
  increased the accuracy of detection, reduced the false alarm rate, and enhanced the reliability of
  the system. The dynamic weighting method used in the algorithm removed the complexity of highlevel
  data processing and allowed the algorithm to learn itself, resulting in a relatively stable
  cloud model. Despite the significant improvement in the performance of the proposed algorithm
  compared to the canonical clustering algorithms, the results of the study also showed that the
  algorithm has some limitations, such as a high false positive rate and sensitivity to data with certain
  types of distribution. To eliminate these shortcomings, further improvement of the algorithm is
  required. In general, the proposed heuristic clustering intrusion detection algorithm based on the
  cloud model is a promising solution for protecting computer networks confidential information.
