With the continuous development of information technology, network security risks are also rising, and ability to quickly perceive threats has become an important prerequisite means cope with risks. Currently, there various types attacks complex attacking techniques, large differences between them have led difficulty collecting recognizing common characteristics attacks. Considering regular temporal fluctuations in attacks, a method for situational awareness, based on enhanced Particle Swarm Optimization Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) model, is proposed. By gathering organizing critical within network, encapsulated Wrapper feature selection algorithm utilized extraction element features. The refined applied optimize parameters BiLSTM enabling rapid convergence enhancing training efficiency, thus effectively identifying categories experimental results show that MAPE proposed model been diminished 0.36%, while sMAPE 2.654%. Additionally, fitting coefficient attains value 0.92. This indicates high level recognition precision exhibited by detecting risk behaviors. Furthermore, contrast traditional CNN neural more compact, which significantly reduces computational overhead allows efficient awareness.
