Development of Firewall System for Automated Policy Rule Generation based on Machine learning

Conventional firewalls cannot cope with attacks immediately. It is because security professionals or administrators need to analyze them and enter relevant policies to the firewalls. In addition, those policies may often block even normal accesses. Even though the packet themselves are normal, there exist many attacks that cause denial of service due to the inflow of a large amount of those packets. In this paper, we propose a method to block attacks such as Flooding, Spoofing and Scanning while allowing normal accesses based on whitelist policies which are automatedly generated by learning normal access patterns.
