EagleEye: A Novel Visual Anomaly Detection Method

摘要

We propose a novel visualization technique (Eagle-Eye) for intrusion detection, which visualizes a host as a commu- nity of system call traces in two-dimensional space. The goal of EagleEye is to visually cluster the system call traces. Although human eyes can easily perceive anomalies using EagleEye view, we propose two different methods called SAM and CPM that use the concept of data depth to help administrators distinguish between normal and abnormal behaviors. Our experimental results conducted on Australian Defence Force Academy Linux Dataset (ADFA-LD), which is a modern system calls dataset that includes new exploits and attacks on various programs, show EagleEye's efficiency in detecting diverse exploits and attacks.
