In this paper we discussed the different types of network intrusion dataset and then we highlighted the fact that any student can easily create a network intrusion dataset that is representative of the network they are in. Intrusions can be in form of anomaly or network signature; the students cannot grasp all types but they have to have the ability to detect malicious packets within his network.  Original Source URL : http://aircconline.com/ijite/V7N3/7318ijite04.pdf For more details : http://airccse.org...
