Abstract
The exponential growth of internet usage has led to a significant rise in
network attacks, posing critical cybersecurity challenges. Fog computing, an
extension of cloud computing, offers low-latency services but is highly
susceptible to such attacks due to its decentralized architecture and resource
constraints. Traditional Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) designed for
centralized networks are often ineffective in fog environments, necessitating
the development of specialized detection methods. This paper proposes a
novel hybrid approach for network anomaly detection tailored for fog
computing environments. The method integrates Particle Swarm Optimization
(PSO)-based wrapper feature selection with the Bagging technique to address
computational and accuracy challenges. Using the NSL-KDD dataset, the
proposed system achieves an impressive accuracy of 98.3% while maintaining
a low false positive rate of 1.5%. These results demonstrate the effectiveness
of the PSO-Bagging framework in enhancing the security of fog computing
systems, making it a robust solution to the growing problem of network
intrusions in distributed computing environments
