Abstract: Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) play a crucial role in keeping online systems secure from attacks. However, these systems usually face the challenge of needing to handle and analyze a vast volume of data in order to achieve intrusion detection. Feature filtration is a solution that overcomes this challenge by focusing on the characteristic network features that play a significant role in enabling these systems to achieve high detection rates. This paper presents an intelligent cuckoo feature filtration method that is intended to prune away insignificant network features. Then, an IDS (the Cuckoo-ID ) is designed in which an eXtended Classifier System (XCS) uses the filtered features for improving the rate of detection of network intrusions. Thus, the main objective of Cuckoo-ID is to maximize the detection rate (DR) and minimize the false alarm rate (FAR). Experiments were then run on the KDDcup’99 dataset to test the intrusion detection (ID) efficiency of the proposed system. The results showed that cuckoo filtration does profoundly raise the ID rate of the entire system. Finally, the DR and FAR of Cuckoo-ID were compared with those of intrusion detection methods that depend on network feature filtration.
