Detecting Networks Anomalies and Attacks Using 3D Visualization

摘要

3D modeling and visualization has become a key component of scientific research and development in many domains. Adding new routers, switches or firewalls, the computer networks are becoming more and more complex. The paradigm of introducing computer networks in three dimensions helps a lot to protect and provide services to networks. Therefore, the main purpose of this paper is detecting the network anomalies based on a 3D visualization of computer network. The interactivity between network administrator and the application happens in real-time. This means that if a breakdown occurs, the network administrator will be informed in real time and will be able immediately to switch off the broken device and then repair it. Practically, we realized a 3D modeling and visualization of our university computer network with more than thousand devices and it works well.
