Despite the fact that satellite-terrestrial systems have advantages such as high throughput, low latency, and low energy consumption, as well as low exposure to physical threats and natural disasters and cost-effective global coverage, their integration exposes both of them to particular security challenges that can arise due to the migration of security challenges from one to another. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) can also be used to provide a high level of protection for modern network environments such as satellite-terrestrial integrated networks (STINs). To optimize the detection performance of malicious activities in network traffic, four hybrid intrusion detection systems for satellite-terrestrial communication systems (SAT-IDSs) are proposed in this paper. All the proposed systems exploit the sequential forward feature selection (SFS) method based on random forest (RF) to select important features from the dataset that increase relevance and reduce complexity and then combine them with a machine learning (ML) or deep learning (DL) model; Random Forest (RF), Long Short-Term memory (LSTM), Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU). Two datasets—STIN, which simulates satellite networks, and UNSW-NB15, which simulates terrestrial networks—were used to evaluate the performance of the proposed SAT-IDSs. The experimental results indicate that selecting significant and crucial features produced by RF-SFS vastly improves detection accuracy and computational efficiency. In the first dataset (STIN), the proposed hybrid ML system SFS-RF achieved an accuracy of 90.5% after using 10 selected features, compared to 85.41% when using the whole dataset. Furthermore, the RF-SFS-GRU model achieved the highest performance of the three proposed hybrid DL-based SAT-IDS with an accuracy of 87% after using 10 selected features, compared to 79% when using the entire dataset. In the second dataset (UNSW-NB15), the proposed hybrid ML system SFS-RF achieved an accuracy of 78.52% after using 10 selected features, compared to 75.4% when using the whole dataset. The model with the highest accuracy of the three proposed hybrid DL-based SAT-IDS was the RF-SFS-GRU model. It achieved an accuracy of 79% after using 10 selected features, compared to 74% when using the whole dataset. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
