Cloud computing has revolutionized online service delivery with its flexibility and cost efficiency. Nevertheless, the growing importance of stored data makes it a target for cyberattacks, posing security and privacy risks. This calls for effective solutions to safeguard data and infrastructure, particularly with regard to intrusion attacks and distributed attacks such as distributed denial of service (DDoS). Therefore, there is a need to develop an effective intrusion detection system (IDS) using deep learning to ensure the protection of cloud data and infrastructure. In this paper, a hybrid model aims to leverage the power of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to analyze spatial features and extract complex patterns, while long short-term memory LSTMs are used to understand temporal data sequences and detect attacks that evolve over time to detect intrusions in cloud computing environments on the CSE-CIC-IDS2018 dataset. The model was trained and tested on DDoS attacks, and the results demonstrated high performance in detecting attacks with high accuracy and efficiency. This hybrid model achieved an accuracy of 99.88%, a precision of 99.83%, a recall of 99.94%, and an F1-score of 99.88%.
