Description
Summary:The application of Big Data Analytics is identified through the Cyber Research Alliance for cybersecurity as the foremost preference for future studies and advancement in the field of cybersecurity. In this study, we develop a repeatable procedure for detecting cyber-attacks in an accurate, scalable, and timely manner. An in-depth learning algorithm is utilized for training a neural network for detecting suspicious user activities. The proposed system architecture was implemented with the help of Splunk Enterprise Edition 6.42. A data set of average feature counts has been executed through a Splunk search command in 1-min intervals. All the data sets consisted of a minute trait total derived from a sparkling file. The attack patterns that were not anonymized or were indicative of the vulnerability of cyber-attack were denoted with yellow. The rule-based method dispensed a low quantity of irregular illustrations in contrast with the Partitioning Around Medoids method. The results in this study demonstrated that using a proportional collection of instances trained with the deep learning algorithm, a classified data set can accurately detect suspicious behavior. This method permits for the allocation of multiple log source types through a sliding time window and provides a scalable solution, which is a much-needed function.
