Abstract

A hacker intrusion detection method is proposed to tighten up Windows system security with text classification, which the Word2vec model and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) are applied to distinguish hostile intrusion logs from a benign. The proposal makes full use of users’ operation commands contained in Windows system logs to analyze possible intrusion information and it supplies an application of text classification with CNN and word2vec on network security. For experiment, the dataset from a company having thousands of employees is converted to word vectors by word2vec model. The results of CNN with word embedding and classifier Support Vector Machine (SVM) with term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF) show the intrusion detection rates 95.56% and 87.55%, respectively. The proposed method can be integrated into antivirus software for hacker intrusion detection.
