Abstract

Signature based NIDS are efficient at detecting attacks for what they are prepared for. This makes an intruder to focus on the new evasion technique to remain undetected. Emergence of new evasion technique may cause NIDS to fail. Unfortunately, most of these techniques are based on network protocols ambiguities, so NIDS designers must take them into account when updating their tools. This paper presents a framework for evading network intrusion detection system and detection over NIDS using frequent element pattern matching . The core of the framework is to model the NIDS using Adaboo st a lgorithm that allows the understanding of how the NIDS classifies network data. We look for some way of evading the NIDS detection by changing some of the fields of the packets. We use publicly available dataset (KDD - 99) for showing the proof of our concept. For real time evasion detection NIDS is build with Apriori algorithm to analyze NIDS robustness with high detection rate accuracy.
