Abstract: The rapid growth of cloud computing has led to an increased demand for security mechanisms to safeguard sensitive data and resources from cyber threats. Intrusion detection systems (IDS) play a crucial role in identifying unauthorized access or malicious activities within cloud environments. This paper presents a comparative study of machine learning (ML) techniques used in intrusion detection for cloud computing platforms. Various ML algorithms, including decision trees, support vector machines, k-nearest neighbors, and neural networks, are evaluated based on their performance in detecting different types of attacks. The study assesses the accuracy, efficiency, and scalability of these techniques in cloud environments, highlighting their strengths and limitations. The findings provide valuable insights into the selection of appropriate machine learning models for effective intrusion detection in dynamic and scalable cloud systems.
