    Discovering the Common Traits of Cybercrimes in Pakistan Using Associative Classification with Ant Colony Optimization

    Abdul Rauf1, Muhammad Asif Khan1,*, Hamid Hussain Awan2, Waseem Shahzad3, Najeeb Ul Husaan4
    Journal of Cyber Security, Vol.4, No.4, pp. 201-222, 2022, DOI:10.32604/jcs.2022.038791 - 10 August 2023
    Abstract In the modern world, law enforcement authorities are facing challenges due to the advanced technology used by criminals to commit crimes. Criminals follow specific patterns to carry out their crimes, which can be identified using machine learning and swarm intelligence approaches. This article proposes the use of the Ant Colony Optimization algorithm to create an associative classification of crime data, which can reveal potential relationships between different features and crime types. The experiments conducted in this research show that this approach can discover various associations among the features of crime data and the specific patterns More >

    Seeded Transfer Learning for Enhanced Attack Trace and Effective Deception

    Jalaj Pateria1,*, Laxmi Ahuja1, Subhranil Som2
    Journal of Cyber Security, Vol.4, No.4, pp. 223-238, 2022, DOI:10.32604/jcs.2023.040186 - 10 August 2023
    Abstract Cyberattacks have reached their peak during COVID-19, and intruders urge to gain the upper hand in the cybersecurity battlefield, even gaining dominance. Now intruders are trying harder to elude behavior analysis techniques, which in turn gets organization security to come for a toss. This phenomenon is even more prevalent in agentless environments (IOT devices, mobile devices), where we do not have any access to edge devices and rely on packet data to predict any attack and its actors. In this paper, we shall be discussing enhancing the accuracy of anomalous behavior detection techniques for efficient… More >

    Phishing Attacks in Social Engineering: A Review

    Kofi Sarpong Adu-Manu*, Richard Kwasi Ahiable, Justice Kwame Appati, Ebenezer Essel Mensah
    Journal of Cyber Security, Vol.4, No.4, pp. 239-267, 2022, DOI:10.32604/jcs.2023.041095 - 10 August 2023
    Abstract Organisations closed their offices and began working from home online to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus. This shift in work culture coincided with increased online use during the same period. As a result, the rate of cybercrime has skyrocketed. This study examines the approaches, techniques, and countermeasures of Social Engineering and phishing in this context. The study discusses recent trends in the existing approaches for identifying phishing assaults. We explore social engineering attacks, categorise them into types, and offer both technical and social solutions for countering phishing attacks which makes this paper different More >

    Ensuring Information Security in Smart Door Lock Systems Using the Cuckoo Search Algorithm

    Arkan Kh Shakr Sabonchi1,*, Zainab Hashim Obaid2
    Journal of Cyber Security, Vol.4, No.4, pp. 269-286, 2022, DOI:10.32604/jcs.2023.041707 - 10 August 2023
    Abstract The widespread use of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, such as smart appliances, phones, and watches, has brought about concerns regarding security and privacy. With the increasing prevalence of cyberattacks from both malicious and non-malicious sources, security has become a critical factor in the design of IoT systems. In particular, data security poses a significant challenge due to the growing amount of data stored in IoT systems. Inadequate security measures can allow hackers to take over IoT devices remotely, resulting in significant damage. To address these concerns and improve the security of IoT-based smart door… More >

    Improving Intrusion Detection in UAV Communication Using an LSTM-SMOTE Classification Method

    Abdulrahman M. Abdulghani, Mokhles M. Abdulghani, Wilbur L. Walters, Khalid H. Abed*
    Journal of Cyber Security, Vol.4, No.4, pp. 287-298, 2022, DOI:10.32604/jcs.2023.042486 - 10 August 2023
    Abstract Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) proliferate quickly and play a significant part in crucial tasks, so it is important to protect the security and integrity of UAV communication channels. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) are required to protect the UAV communication infrastructure from unauthorized access and harmful actions. In this paper, we examine a new approach for enhancing intrusion detection in UAV communication channels by utilizing the Long Short-Term Memory network (LSTM) combined with the Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) algorithm, and this integration is the binary classification method (LSTM-SMOTE). We successfully achieved 99.83% detection accuracy by More >
