A mutation technique is proposed in this study to test and evaluate the performance of a full range of classifier ensembles for Network Intrusion Detection when trying to recognize new attacks. The novel technique applies mutant operators that randomly modify the features of the captured network packets to generate situations that could not otherwise be provided to IDSs while learning. A comprehensive comparison of supervised classifiers and their ensembles is performed to assess their generalization capability. It is based on the idea of confronting brand new network attacks obtained by means of the mutation technique. Finally, an example application of the proposed testing model is specially applied to the identification of network scans and related mutations 1367-0751 http://hdl.handle.net/10259/3860 10.1093/jigpal/jzs037 Network intrusion detection IDS performance classifier ensembles machine learning zero-day attacks mutation Mutating network scans for the assessment of supervised classifier ensembles
