<![CDATA[The increasing complexity of smart campus networks has heightened the need for advanced cybersecurity measures to protect sensitive data and ensure seamless operations. Traditional Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) often struggle to cope with the dynamic and heterogeneous nature of network traffic in smart campus environments, necessitating the development of more effective solutions. This study aims to propose a deep learning-based intrusion detection system for smart campus networks, utilizing a Hybrid CNN-LSTM model to enhance security monitoring. The proposed methodology integrates Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) for feature extraction and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks for capturing temporal dependencies in network traffic. The model was trained and evaluated on a combination of publicly available datasets and simulated smart campus data, measuring performance through key metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score. Results show that the Hybrid CNN-LSTM model outperforms traditional machine learning models, achieving an accuracy of 97.3% and a ROC-AUC of 0.99, demonstrating superior detection of both known and unknown intrusions. The findings suggest that deep learning models, especially when tailored to smart campus contexts, offer significant advantages in real-time threat detection and adaptive learning. This research contributes to the growing body of knowledge on AI-driven network security and provides practical insights for improving cybersecurity infrastructures in higher education institutions.]]>
