This paper describes experiences and results applying Support Vector Machine (SVM) to a Computer Intrusion Detection (CID) dataset. First, issues in supervised classification are discussed, then the incorporation of anomaly detection enhancing the modeling and prediction of cyber-attacks. SVM methods are seen as competitive with benchmark methods and other studies, and are used as a standard for the anomaly detection investigation. The anomaly detection approaches compare one class SVMs with a thresholded Mahalanobis distance to define support regions. Results compare the performance of the methods and investigate joint performance of classification and anomaly detection. The dataset used is the DARPA/KDD-99 publicly available dataset of features from network packets, classified into nonattack and four-attack categories.
