Anomaly Detection Integration-framework for Network Services in Computer Education Systems

Public computer education systems provide students essential opportunities to enhance computer literacy and information skills. However, the widespread adoption of online education technology exposes the field to several critical security risks. Threats such as malware infections, data breaches, and other network intrusions are all challenging the security of education systems, posing potential hazards to students’ personal information and even the entire teaching environment. To spur further work into specialized anomaly detection techniques for computer education, this paper presents an anomaly detection framework tailored for network services in computer education environments to safe- guard these systems. Specifically, the proposed approach learns from large-scale online educational traffic data to classify the security state into five alert levels, enabling more granular anomaly detection and analysis. To assess their detection performance, deep learning and traditional machine learning algorithms are implemented and compared for multi-class intrusion classification. The results show that the proposed framework provides an effective security solution to bolster the integrity and stability of computer education systems against evolving network threats, enhancing threat intelligence to inform proactive security by detecting and characterizing anomalies through multilevel classification.
