Gathered from the KDD Cup Data Set, the features outlined by Stolfo, defined features that help in distinguishing normal connections from bad connection, i.e. attacks. They categorized the features into the following: same host, same service, time-based traffic, host-based traffic, and content features. Same host features examine only connections in the past two seconds. These features have the same destination host as the current connections. Same service features examine connections that have the same service as the current connection in the past two seconds. Both of these together, same host and same service, are defined as time-based traffic. Host-based traffic on the other hand, involves sorting connection records by destination host. Thus, focusing on the same host instead of a specific time window. Finally, content features are added features that help in determining other predictors that may add to certain behaviors in the data.
