This paper proposes the use of autoencoder to detect malicious pattern in the HTTP/HTTPS requests. The autoencoder is able to operate on the raw data and thus, does not require the hand-crafted features to be extracted. We evaluate the original autoencoder and its variants and end up with the Regularized Deep Autoencoder, which can achieve an F1-score of 0.9463 on the CSIC 2010 dataset. It also produces a better performance with respect to OWASP Core Rule Set and other one-class methods, reported in the literature. The Regularized Deep Autoencoder is then combined with Modsecurity in order to protect a website in real time. This algorithm proves to be comparable to the original Modsecurity in terms of computation time and is ready to be deployed in practice. date: 2018-12 date_type: published full_text_status: none pres_type: paper event_title: The Ninth International Symposium on Information and Communication Technology (SoICT 2018) event_location: Da Nang event_dates: 6-7 December 2018 event_type: conference refereed: FALSE citation: Mac, Hieu and Truong, Dung and Nguyen, Lam and Nguyen, Ngoc Hoa and Tran, Hai Anh and Tran, Quang Duc (2018) Detecting Atacks on Web Applications using Autoencoder.
