Abstract
Due to the increasing severity of network security issues, training corresponding detection models requires large datasets. In this work, we propose a novel method based on generative adversarial networks to synthesize network data traffic. We introduced a network traffic data normalization method based on Gaussian mixture models (GMM), and for the first time, incorporated a generator based on the Swin Transformer structure into the field of network traffic generation. To further enhance the robustness of the model, we mapped real data through an AE (autoencoder) module and optimized the training results in the form of evolutionary algorithms. We validated the training results on four different datasets and introduced four additional models for comparative experiments in the experimental evaluation section. Our proposed SEGAN outperformed other state-of-the-art network traffic emulation methods.
