An administrator is employed to identify network security breaches in their organizations by using a Network Intrusion Detection and Prevention System (NIDPS), which is presented in this paper that can detect and preventing a wide range of well-known network attacks. It is now more important than ever to recognize different cyber-attacks and network abnormalities that build an effective intrusion detection system plays a crucial role in today's security. NSL-KDD benchmark data set is extensively used in literature, although it was created over a decade ago and will not reflect current network traffic and low-footprint attacks. Canadian Institute of Cyber security introduced a new data set, the CICIDS2017 network data set, which solved the NSL-KDD problem. With our approach, we can apply a variety of machine learning techniques like linear regression, Random Forest and ID3. The efficient IDPS is indeed implemented and tested in a network environment utilizing several machine learning methods. A model that simulates an IDS-IPS system by predicting whether a stream of network data is malicious or benign is our objective. An Enhanced ID3 is proposed in this study to identify abnormalities in network activity and classify them. For benchmark purposes, we also develop an auto encoder network, PCA, and K-Means Clustering. On CICIDS2017, a standard dataset for network intrusion, we apply Self-Taught Learning (STL), which is a deep learning approach. To compare, we looked at things like memory, Recall, Accuracy, and Precision.
