While Computer Security is a broader term that incorporates technologies, protocols, standards, and policies to ensure the security of computing systems—including computer hardware, software, and the information stored within it—Cyber Security is a specific, growing field focused on protecting computer networks (both offline and online) from unauthorized access, botnets, phishing scams, etc. Machine learning, a branch of Computer Science, enables computing machines to adopt new behaviours based on observable and verifiable data and information. It can be applied to ensure the security of computers and information by detecting anomalies using data mining and other techniques.

Machine Learning for Computer and Cyber Security is an invaluable resource for understanding the importance of machine learning and data mining in establishing computer and cyber security. It emphasises important security aspects associated with computer and cyber security, along with the analysis of machine learning and data mining-based solutions. The book also highlights future research domains where these solutions can be applied. Furthermore, it caters to the needs of IT professionals, researchers, faculty members, scientists, graduate students, research scholars, and software developers seeking to conduct research and develop combating solutions in cyber security using machine learning approaches. It is an extensive source of information for readers in the field of Computer Science and Engineering, as well as Cyber Security professionals.

Key Features:

  • This book contains examples and illustrations to demonstrate the principles, algorithms, challenges, and applications of machine learning and data mining for computer and cyber security.
  • It showcases important security aspects and current trends in the field.
  • It provides insight into future research directions in the field.
  • The content helps students prepare to exercise better defence by understanding attackers' motivations and how to deal with and mitigate situations using machine learning-based approaches.
