Abstrakt: The application of cloud computing has increased tremendously in both public and private organizations. However, attacks on cloud computing pose a serious threat to confidentiality and data integrity. Therefore, there is a need for a proper mechanism for detecting cloud intrusions. In this paper, we have proposed a cloud intrusion detection system (IDS) that is focused on boosting the classification accuracy by improving feature selection and weighing the ensemble model with the crow search algorithm (CSA). The feature selection is handled by combining both filter and automated models to obtain improved feature sets. The ensemble classifier is made up of machine and deep learning models such as long short-term memory (LSTM), support vector machine (SVM), XGBoost, and a fast learning network (FLN). The proposed ensemble model's weights are generated with the CSA to obtain better prediction results. Experiments are executed on the NSL-KDD, Kyoto, and CSE-CIC-IDS-2018 datasets. The simulation shows that the suggested system attained more satisfactory results in terms of accuracy, recall, precision, and F-measure than conventional approaches. The detection rate and false alarm rate (FAR) of different attack types was more efficient for each dataset. The classifiers' performances were also compared individually to the ensemble model in terms of the false positive rate (FPR) and false negative rate (FNR) to demonstrate the ensemble model's robustness.
