• Abstract: Machine learning and data mining techniques are utiized for enhancement of the security of any network. Researchers used machine learning for pattern detection, anomaly detection, dynamic policy setting, etc. The methods allow the program to learn from data and make decisions without human intervention, consuming a huge training period and computation power. This paper discusses a novel technique to predict an upcoming attack in a network based on several data parameters. The dataset is continuous in real-time implementation. The proposed model comprises dataset pre-processing, and training, followed by the testing phase. Based on the results of the testing phase, the best model is selected using which, event class which may lead to an attack is extracted. The event statistics are used for attack

  We study automated intrusion detection in an IT infrastructure, specifically the problem of identifying the start of an attack. We apply statistical learning methods, including Hidden Markov Model (HMM), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), and Random Forest (RFC) We find that both HMM and LSTM can be effective in predicting attack start time, attack type, and attack actions.

  We present an approach for modelling IoT network attacks that focuses on generalizability, yet also leads to better detection and performance. First, we present an improved rolling window approach for feature extraction, and introduce a multi-step feature selection process that reduces overfitting. Second, we build and test models using isolated train and test datasets, thereby avoiding common data leaks. Third, we rigorously evaluate our methodology using a diverse portfolio of machine learning models, evaluation metrics and datasets.

  Selective prediction aims to learn a reliable model that abstains from making predictions when uncertain. Active learning aims to lower the overall labeling effort, and hence human dependence, by querying the most informative examples. In this work, we introduce a new learning paradigm, active selective prediction, which aims to query more informative samples from the shifted target domain.

  This paper presents CARLA-GeAR, a tool for the automatic generation of synthetic datasets for evaluating the robustness of neural models against physical adversarial patches. The tool is built on the CARLA simulator, using its Python API, and allows the generation of datasets for several vision tasks in the context of autonomous driving. The paper presents an experimental study to evaluate the performance of some defense methods against such attacks, showing how the datasets generated with CARLA-GeAR might be used in future work as a benchmark for adversarial defense in the real world.

We derive new attack algorithms that can achieve a high AUC score while also highlighting the different factors that affect their performance. Our algorithms capture a very precise approximation of privacy loss in models, and can be used as a tool to perform an accurate and informed estimation of privacy risk in machine learning models.

We exploit the gradients of a differentiable convex loss function with respect to the predicted label as a warm-start and formulate different strategies to find a set of data instances to contaminate. Our experiments show that the proposed approach outperforms the baselines and is computationally efficient.
