One way to ensure network security is by using intrusion detection systems (IDSs), which are specialised devices that detect anomalies and attacks in the network. However, these systems are vulnerable to data poisoning attacks, such as label and distance-based ﬂipping, which can undermine their effectiveness within blockchain-enabled supply chain networks. In this research paper, we investigate the effect of these attacks on a network intrusion detection system using several machine learning models, including logistic regression, random forest, SVC, and XGBClassiﬁer, and evaluate each model via their F1 Score, confusion matrix, and accuracy. We run each model three times: once without any attack, once with random label ﬂipping with a randomness of 20%, and once with distance-based label ﬂipping attacks with a distance threshold of 0.5 . Additionally, this research tests an eight-layer neural network using accuracy metrics and a classiﬁcation report library. The primary goal of this research is to provide insights into the effect of data poisoning attacks on machine learning models within the context of blockchain-enabled supply chain networks. By doing so, we aim to contribute to developing more robust intrusion detection systems tailored to the speciﬁc challenges of securing blockchain-based supply chain networks.  \nKeywords: blockchain; supply chain; machine learning; ﬂipping; poisoning attacks  \n1. Introduction  \nIn recent years, network intrusion detection systems (NIDSs) have become essential tools for securing computer networks, especially in blockchain-enabled supply chain networks. These systems often rely on machine learning models to enhance their effectiveness. However, these models are vulnerable to data poisoning attacks, compromising their accuracy and posing signiﬁcant security risks. This research aims to conduct an experimental assessment of the impact of data poisoning attacks on the machine learning models used within NIDSs.  \nThe ever-expanding realm of computer
