Multi-Level Distributional Entropy for Explainable Network Intrusion Detection

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.
