Combined Forest: a New Supervised Approach for a Machine-Learning-based Botnets Detection
Résumé
Nowadays, botnet-based attacks are the most prevalent cyber-threats type. It is therefore essential to detect this kind of malware using efficient bots detection techniques. This paper presents our security anomalies detection system, based on a model that we named Combined Forest. Our approach consists of merging some pre-processed Decision Trees to highlight different kinds of botnet by detecting their intrinsic exchanges. Using a supervised data approach, each tree is built from a labelled dataset. In order to achieve this, we aggregate the IP-flows into Traffic-flows to extract key features and avoid over-fitting. Then, we tested different machine learning algorithms and selected the most suitable one. After that, many experiments have been done to determine the best parameters and design the most accurate, adaptative and efficient model.
