Intrusion detection systems (IDS) are an important tool for securing computer networks from various types of cyberattacks. The increasing complexity of network attacks demands more sophisticated approaches to intrusion detection. This paper presents an innovative method for IDS that involves combining Z-Score outlier detection, KMeans clustering, and Random Forest classification techniques. We tested our methodology using the CICIDS2017 dataset, which is a standardization dataset for intrusion detection that is frequently utilized. Our proposed approach first uses Z-Score outlier detection to identify abnormal traffic flows in the network. Next, KMeans clustering is used to group the traffic flows into different clusters based on their similarity. Finally, Random Forest classification is used to classify each traffic flow into normal or abnormal categories. Based on our experimental results, our approach for intrusion detection shows superior performance compared to several other state-of-the-art methods in terms of accuracy and precision. Our proposed method achieved an accuracy rate of 95.75% and a precision of 95.76%, surpassing the performance of KNN, SVM, and decision trees approaches. In conclusion, the proposed Z-K-R approach offers a promising solution for IDS by leveraging the strengths of Z-Score outlier detection, KMeans clustering, and Random Forest classification techniques. This strategy has the potential to increase the efficiency of IDS and boost network security in applications that take place in the real world. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
