Project Overview

 Project Name: Intrusion Detection System (IDS) with Machine Learning Integration
 Purpose: To detect and respond to suspicious activities in a network environment,
providing real-time alerts through email, browser notifications, and detailed logs.

2. Key Features

1. Intrusion Detection:
o Automatically detects suspicious activities using predefined rules and machine
learning.
o Logs detailed activity reports.
2. Real-Time Alerts:
o Sends email notifications to administrators upon detecting intrusions.
o Displays browser notifications for instant on-screen alerts.
3. Browser Interface:
o A responsive web dashboard to monitor detected activities in real-time.
o Includes an activity log and a "Clear Log" button for better management.
4. Machine Learning Integration:
o Utilizes a pre-trained ML model to classify network traffic into normal and
suspicious categories.
o Enables dynamic and intelligent decision-making based on the data.

3. Technology Stack

1. Frontend:
o HTML, CSS for structure and styling.
o JavaScript and Socket.IO for real-time updates.
2. Backend:
o Python with Flask for the server.
o Machine Learning (Scikit-learn) for traffic analysis.
3. Email Alerts:
o SMTP protocol for sending emails with alerts.
4. Machine Learning:
o Dataset: [Specify dataset used, e.g., KDD Cup 99 or NSL-KDD].
o Model: Logistic Regression or Random Forest trained on network traffic data.
o Features: Packets per second, source/destination IP, and protocol type.

4. Workflow

1. Data Collection:
o Captures network packets using simulated or live data streams.
2. Preprocessing:
o Extracts relevant features and processes them for ML classification.
3. Prediction:
o Passes the data to the ML model to classify as normal or intrusion.
4. Response:
o Sends alerts to the admin (email and browser).
o Updates the dashboard with the detected activity.

5. Testing and Results

 Scenarios Tested:
o Normal browsing activity (classified as "normal").
o Simulated malicious activities (classified as "intrusion").
 Outputs:
o Detailed logs in the browser interface.
o Email alerts with timestamps and activity details.
 Evaluation:
o Machine learning accuracy: [Specify accuracy achieved].

6. Challenges and Solutions

1. Challenge: Accurate classification of traffic data.


o Solution: Trained a robust ML model with a diverse dataset.
2. Challenge: Ensuring real-time performance.
o Solution: Optimized the code to process packets efficiently.
3. Challenge: Integration of ML with web technologies.
o Solution: Used Flask as a lightweight and compatible backend framework.

7. Future Enhancements

1. Deploying the system on a real-time network for production use.


2. Improving the ML model by training on larger, more diverse datasets.
3. Adding advanced features like:
o Role-based access control for admin and users.
o Visualizations of traffic patterns.

8. Demonstration Steps

1. Open the terminal and start the server: python main.py.


2. Access the browser interface at http://localhost:5000.
3. Simulate an intrusion using Postman or other tools.
4. Observe real-time updates in the browser log.
5. Check the email alert sent with activity details.
