Abstract

This is one of the greatest challenges in computer network security and cannot be dealt with without a set of most recent detection techniques. This paper lays down a new hybrid technique that combines Clustering-Based Local Outlier Factor (CBLOF) and Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) to enhance accuracy while detecting Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) from network traffic. The proposed hybrid model utilizes a CBLOF for outlier detection as feature engineering. Over the detected anomalies, classification is to be done using XGBoost classification to attain the objective. The proposed hybrid model was tested extensively on CICIDS 2017 and CICIDS 2018 datasets Compared with traditional ones, the proposed model outperformed the traditional ones with an accuracy rate of 99.99%, precision of 100%, and F1 score reflecting perfection. These results confirm this model's efficiency in terms of known and novel attack patterns and introduce a further reliable framework for the timely detection of DDoS attacks. Even if it is computation-heavy, optimization could be made towards real-time large-scale data.
