Abstract-Software Defined Networking (SDN) has emerged as a key enabler for future agile Internet architecture. Nevertheless, the flexibility provided by SDN architecture manifests several new design issues in terms of network security. These issues must be addressed in a unified way to strengthen overall network security for future SDN deployments. Consequently, in this paper, we propose a Gated Recurrent Unit Recurrent Neural Network (GRU-RNN) enabled intrusion detection systems for SDNs. The proposed approach is tested using the NSL-KDD dataset, and we achieve an accuracy of 89% with only six raw features. Our experiment results also show that the proposed GRU-RNN does not deteriorate the network performance. Through extensive experiments, we conclude that the proposed approach exhibits a strong potential for intrusion detection in the SDN environments.
