Abstract


Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are crucial in maintaining network security and safeguarding sensitive information against external and internal threats. This study proposes a novel approach by utilizing a Pigeon-Inspired Algorithm optimized with the Hyperbolic Tangent Function (Tanh) function to enhance the performance of IDS in threat detection specifically tailored for Internet of Things (IoT) environments. We aim to create a more robust solution for optimizing intrusion detection systems by integrating the efficient and effective Tanh function into the Pigeon-Inspired Algorithm. The proposed method is evaluated on three widely-used datasets in the field of IDS: NSL-KDD, CICIDS2017, and CSE-CIC-IDS2018. Experimental results demonstrate that integrating the Tanh function into the Pigeon-Inspired Algorithm significantly improves the performance of the intrusion detection system. Our method achieves higher accuracy, True Positive Rate (TPR), and F1-score while reducing the False Positive Rate (FPR) compared to traditional Pigeon-Inspired Algorithms and several other optimization algorithms. The Pigeon-Inspired Algorithm optimized with the Tanh function offers an efficient and effective solution for enhancing intrusion detection system performance, specifically in Internet of Things environments. This method holds great potential for application in diverse network environments, bolstering information security and safeguarding systems from evolving cybersecurity threats. By extending the applicability and effectiveness of the Pigeon-Inspired Algorithm optimized with the Tanh function, researchers can contribute to developing more comprehensive and robust security solutions, addressing the ever-evolving landscape of IoT-based cybersecurity threats.
