Abstract Intrusion detection systems that have emerged in recent decades can identify a variety of malicious attacks that target networks by employing several detection approaches. However, the current approaches have challenges in detecting intrusions, which may affect the performance of the overall detection system as well as network performance. For the time being, one of the most important creative technological advancements that plays a significant role in the professional world today is blockchain technology. Blockchain technology moves in the direction of persistent revolution and change. It is a chain of blocks that covers information and maintains… More >

Abstract Nowadays, machine learning (ML) algorithms cannot succeed without the availability of an enormous amount of training data. The data could contain sensitive information, which needs to be protected. Membership inference attacks attempt to find out whether a target data point is used to train a certain ML model, which results in security and privacy implications. The leakage of membership information can vary from one machine-learning algorithm to another. In this paper, we conduct an empirical study to explore the performance of membership inference attacks against three different machine learning algorithms, namely, K-nearest neighbors, random forest, More >

Abstract Technology is expanding like a mushroom, there are various benefits of technology, in contrary users are facing serious losses by this technology. Furthermore, people lost their lives, their loved ones, brain-related diseases, etc. The industry is eager to get one technology that can secure their finance-related matters, personal videos or pictures, precious contact numbers, and their current location. Things are going worst because every software has some sort of legacy, deficiency, and shortcomings through which exploiters gain access to any software. There are various ways to get illegitimate access but on the top is Linux More >

Abstract The rapid development of Internet of Things (IoT) technology has brought great convenience to people’s life. However, the security protection capability of IoT is weak and vulnerable. Therefore, more protection needs to be done for the security of IoT. The paper proposes an intrusion detection method for IoT based on multi GBDT feature reduction and hierarchical traffic detection model. Firstly, GBDT is used to filter the features of IoT traffic data sets BoT-IoT and UNSW-NB15 to reduce the traffic feature dimension. At the same time, in order to improve the reliability of feature filtering, this… More >

Abstract In this paper, a cybersecurity threat warning model based on ant colony algorithm is designed to strengthen the accuracy of the cybersecurity threat warning model in the warning process and optimize its algorithm structure. Through the ant colony algorithm structure, the local global optimal solution is obtained; and the cybersecurity threat warning index system is established. Next, the above two steps are integrated to build the cybersecurity threat warning model based on ant colony algorithm, and comparative experiment is also designed. The experimental results show that, compared with the traditional qualitative differential game-based cybersecurity More >

Abstract The ecosystem security platform described in this research is already impacting the threat spectrum in quantifiable ways. The global network has undergone a dramatic transformation over the course of 2020, with an unprecedented destabilization of events. Security breaches of all kinds are growing in complexity, sophistication, and impact. The bad actors are bypassing predictable security devices at will by breaching network systems at an escalating rate. This study will analyze these developments by creating awareness among security practitioners so they can be prepared to defend their enterprise systems. More >
