Abstract

Presently, Network security is the most concerned subject matter because with the rapid use of internet technology and further dependence on network for keeping our data secure, it's becoming impossible to protect from vulnerable attacks. Intrusion detection systems (IDS) are the key solution for detecting these attacks so that the network remains reliable. There are different classification approaches used to implement IDS in order to increase their efficiency in terms of detection rate. Support vector machine (SVM) is used for classification in IDS due to its good generalization ability and non linear classification using different kernel functions and performs well as compared to other classifiers. Different Kernels of SVM are used for different problems to enhance performance rate. In this paper, we provide a review of the SVM and its kernel approaches in IDS for future research and implementation towards the development of optimal approach in intrusion detection system with maximum detection rate and minimized false alarms.
