Recent deep learning approaches for network intrusion detection increasingly incorporate temporal architectures such as recurrent networks and Transformers, often reporting near-perfect performance on CIC-IDS2017. However, many existing studies neither supply their temporal modules with genuine sequence inputs nor evaluate under realistic, leakage-free conditions, making it unclear whether reported gains arise from true sequence-modeling capability.
