A novel DRX ensemble voting classifier improves Internet of Everything security for 6G networks. This machine learning approach significantly enhances intrusion detection accuracy and reduces false positives across multiple datasets.
Area of Science:
- Cybersecurity
- Machine Learning
- Network Security
Background:
- The Internet of Everything (IoE) in 6G networks expands connectivity, increasing security risks from botnets and other attacks.
- Protecting IoT-enabled metaverse connections requires robust security measures to detect network anomalies.
Purpose of the Study:
- To propose a novel classification technique for enhanced network intrusion detection.
- To improve the accuracy and precision of security systems in the context of rapidly expanding IoT connectivity.
Main Methods:
- Developed a DRX ensemble voting classifier combining Decision Tree, Random Forest, and XGBoost algorithms.
- Evaluated the proposed technique using benchmark datasets: NSL-KDD, UNSW-NB15, and CIC-IDS2017.
Main Results:
- Achieved high accuracy rates: 99.88% (NSL-KDD), 99.93% (UNSW-NB15), and 99.98% (CIC-IDS2017).
- Significantly reduced false positive rates to 0.003%, 0.001%, and 0.00012% across the datasets.
- Demonstrated superior performance compared to other existing methods.
Conclusions:
- The DRX-based ensemble voting classifier is highly effective for network intrusion detection in IoE environments.
- The proposed method offers a robust solution for safeguarding 6G networks against emerging cyber threats.
