As information technology grows, network security is a significant issue and challenge. The intrusion detection system (IDS) is known as the main component of a secure network. An IDS can be considered a set of tools to help identify and report abnormal activities in the network. In this study, we use data mining of a new framework using fuzzy tools and combine it with the ant colony optimization algorithm (ACOR) to overcome the shortcomings of the k-means clustering method and improve detection accuracy in IDSs. Introduced IDS. The ACOR algorithm is recognized as a fast and accurate meta-method for optimization problems. We combine the improved ACOR with the fuzzy c-means algorithm to achieve efficient clustering and intrusion detection. Our proposed hybrid algorithm is reviewed with the NSL-KDD dataset and the ISCX 2012 dataset using various criteria. For further evaluation, our method is compared to other tasks, and the results are compared show that the proposed algorithm has performed better in all cases.
