Host based intrusion detection systems (HIDSs) are indispensable tools for providing a comprehensive security solution. They are capable of detecting host specific attacks, which cannot be detected using network based intrusion detection systems (NIDSs). This paper proposes a noveltfidfvectorizerand truncatedsingular valuedecomposition(SVD) based host intrusion detection system (HIDS) framework for identification of anomalous system processes in real time. The proposed HIDS framework takes the system call trace files as its input and transforms them inton-gramfeature vector representational models. The framework then uses a vectorization technique called thetfidfvectorizerto compute thetfidfvalues of then-gramterms of the transformed feature vectors. Dimensionality reduction of the transformedn-gramfeature vectors are then carried out using truncated SVD based on theirtfidfvalues. The dimensionality reducedtfidfvectorized n-gramfeature vectors are finally provided as inputs to various machine learning based classifier models to determine whether the corresponding system call trace files are normal or anomalous. Experimental results on the benchmark ADFA-LD and ADFA-WD datasets show that the proposed HIDS framework effectively detects anomalous system processes with high accuracy and low processing overhead. It is also shown to outperform other HIDS frameworks proposed in the literature.
