New AI framework enhances forensic network intrusion detection

Researchers have developed a novel framework for intrusion detection that prioritizes forensic defensibility and reproducibility. This system utilizes synthetic network traffic data generated via CTGAN, trained using XGBoost, and employs SHAP TreeExplainer for instance-level justifications. The approach ensures original evidence remains immutable, adhering to ISO/IEC standards and NIST guidelines. Evaluations on datasets like CICIDS2017 demonstrated high F1-macro scores, comparable to real-data baselines, while preserving synthetic privacy and accurately mapping attack fingerprints for forensic reporting.
