Network Intrusion Detection System

Machine-learning anomaly detection over live network traffic

4-5 weeks build

Overview

A streaming IDS that captures packets, derives flow-level features, and flags intrusions with a trained ensemble model. Alerts stream into a live dashboard with severity scoring, and every detection links back to the exact flow that triggered it.

What makes it stand up

  • 01Flow feature extraction matching the CIC-IDS schema
  • 02Ensemble classifier with per-attack-class metrics
  • 03Kafka pipeline for real-time scoring at line rate
  • 04Grafana dashboard with severity and MITRE mapping
  • 05Replayable PCAP attack scenarios for your demo

Module breakdown

  1. 01

    Capture

    Live sniffing and PCAP replay with flow assembly.

  2. 02

    Feature engineering

    Statistical, timing and protocol features.

  3. 03

    Detection

    Trained ensemble plus an unsupervised anomaly fallback.

  4. 04

    Alerting

    Severity scoring, deduplication and notification hooks.

  5. 05

    Dashboard

    Live traffic, alert timeline and drill-down views.

After this, you will be able to

  • Compare signature-based and anomaly-based detection
  • Justify your handling of class imbalance
  • Run a live attack demo safely on a lab network
