arXiv:2606. 07716v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Adversarial attacks pose a serious and growing threat to Machine Learning (ML)-based Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), where imperceptible perturbations to network flow features can systematically mislead classifiers into accepting malicious traffic as benign.
arXiv:2607. 15379v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Network anomaly detection is increasingly challenging due to the growing diversity and variability of traffic patterns, which are not always well captured by traditional statistical features.
JEV-IDS is an open experimental general network intrusion detection system that uses the Jev System One Model to detect zero‑day intrusions even when labeled data are scarce. The system processes one flow per request and asks the model two questions: a binary attack probability and a finite‑choice traffic category. In tests on a 300‑flow NSL‑KDD pilot split, JEV-IDS achieved an F1‑score of 0.859, precision of 0.941, recall of 0.790, and a novel‑attack recall of 0.838, while being 4.8 times faster and 3.8 times cheaper than GPT‑5.6 Luna and producing 15 times fewer false alarms than a low‑data Random Forest.
arXiv:2606. 29797v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Machine learning network intrusion detection systems (IDS) rely on aggregate flow statistics that discard distributional structure, while established entropy measures require raw packet sequences unavailable in pre-aggregated flow datasets.
Machine learning network intrusion detection systems (IDS) rely on aggregate flow statistics that discard distributional structure, while established entropy measures require raw packet sequences unavailable in pre-aggregated flow datasets. We propose Multi-Level Distributional Entropy (MDE), an analytical framework that derives interpretable entropy features directly from flow-level summary statistics at three levels: within-flow Gaussian differential entropy, cross-directional Jensen-Shannon divergence (JSD), and Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) flag-pattern Shannon entropy, without raw packet access or training data.
Backdoor attacks compromise training data so that a model retains clean accuracy but predicts an attacker-chosen target on triggered inputs. At very low poisoning rates, only a few samples convey the trigger--target association, making poison-sample selection critical.
