Nowadays, with the rapid prevalence of networked machines and Internet technologies, intrusion detection systems are increasingly in demand. Consequently, numerous illicit activities by external and internal attackers need to be detected. Thus, earlier detection of such activities is necessary for protecting data and information. In this paper, we investigated the use of the Cuttlefish optimization algorithm as a new rule generation method for the classification task to deal with the intrusion detection problem. The effectiveness of the proposed method was tested using KDD Cup 99 dataset based on different evaluation methods. The obtained results were also compared with the results obtained by some classical well-known algorithms namely Decision Tree (DT), Naïve Bayes (NB), Support Vector Machine (SVM), and K-Nearest Neighborhood (K-NN). Our experimental results showed that the proposed method demonstrates a good classification performance and provides significantly preferable results when compared with the performance of other traditional algorithms. The proposed method produced 93.9%, 92.2%, and 94.7% in terms of precision, recall, and area under curve, respectively.
