Abstract(in English) We present a method of detecting network anomalies, such as DDoS attacks and flash crowds, automatically in real time. We evaluated this method using measured traffic data and found that it successfully differentiates suspicious traffic. In this paper, we focus on periodic traffic which have daily cycle and/or weekly cycle, and we show that the accuracy of differentiation is improved using such periodic tendency in anomaly detection. Our method differentiates suspicious traffic that have different statistical characteristics from normal traffic. At the same time, our method learns periodic large-volume traffic, such as operating traffic, and considers them as legitimate at the end. Therefore, our method has fewer false-positives than original methods which do not consider periodic tendency.
