Improving Markov-based TCP Traffic Classification

Authors: Gerhard Münz, Stephan Heckmüller, Lothar Braun, and Georg Carle

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 17, 17th GI/ITG Conference on Communication in Distributed Systems (KiVS 2011)


Abstract
This paper presents an improved variant of our Markov-based TCP traffic classifier and demonstrates its performance using traffic captured in a university network. Payload length, flow direction, and position of the first data packets of a TCP connection are reflected in the states of the Markov models. In addition, we integrate a new "end of connection" state to further improve the classification accuracy. Using 10-fold cross validation, we identify appropriate settings for the payload length intervals and the number of data packets considered in the models. Finally, we discuss the classification results for the different applications.

6. 08102 Working Group – Requirements for Network Monitoring from an IDS Perspective

Authors: Lothar Braun, Falko Dressler, Thorsten Holz, Engin Kirda, Jan Kohlrausch, Christopher Kruegel, Tobias Limmer, Konrad Rieck, and James Sterbenz

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8102, Perspectives Workshop: Network Attack Detection and Defense (2008)


Abstract
Detection of malicious traffic is based on its input data, the information that is co-ming from network-based monitoring systems. Best detection rates would only be possible by monitoring all data transferred over all network lines in a distributed net-work. Monitoring and reporting this amount of data are feasible in neither today's, nor will be in future's systems. Later analysis like stateful inspection of the traffic imposes even more processing costs. But only at this level of monitoring and analysis there may be a chance to capture all attacks inside a system. So there needs to be a trade-off between detection success and the processing costs.
