Summary: | Cybercrime has led to the loss of billions of dollars, the malfunctioning of computer systems, the destruction of critical information,
the compromising of network integrity and confidentiality, etc. In view of these crimes committed on a daily basis, the security of
the computer systems has become imperative to minimize and possibly avoid the impact of cybercrimes. In this paper, we review
recent advances in the use of cyber security benchmark datasets for the evaluation of machine learning and data mining-based
intrusion detection systems. It was found that the state-of-the-art cyber security benchmark datasets KDD and UNM are no longer
reliable, because their datasets cannot meet the expectations of current advances in computer technology. As a result, a new ADFA
Linux (ADFA-LD) cyber security benchmark dataset for the evaluation of machine learning and data mining-based intrusion
detection systems was proposed in 2013 to meet the current significant advances in computer technology. ADFA-LD requires
improvement in terms of full descriptions of its attributes. This review can be used by the research community as a basis for
abandoning the previous state-of-the-art cyber security benchmark datasets and starting to use the newly introduced benchmark
dataset for effective and robust evaluation of machine learning and data mining-based intrusion detection system |
