contents <p>ABSTRACT <br>Anomaly detection is generally understood to refer to rare objects, events or observations that deviate <br>significantly from the bulk of the data and do not conform to well-defined notions of normal practice. The model <br>uses the k-means power of clustering to identify potential anomalies based on the distance between cluster <br>centroids and optimizes the search by using an autoencoder to detect reconstruction errors and then, hybrid <br>method combining kmeans and autoencoder, compared with individual methods . The model was tested on real<br>time network traffic data collected through Wireshark, which demonstrated its effectiveness in detecting <br>anomalous networks. KMeans and Autoencoders have been shown to perform well in detecting anomalies in <br>network traffic, where both methods show the same number of anomalies and in addition, the hybrid method <br>detects fewer anomalies and outperforms both KMeans and Autoencoders. <br>Keywords: Anomaly detection, K-Means, cyber security, autoencoders. </p>
