Content preview from Deep Learning for Intrusion Detection

Preface

Cybersecurity threats are becoming more complex every day, and traditional security tools alone are no longer enough to protect networks. This edited volume, Deep Learning for Intrusion Detection: Techniques and Applications, brings together contributions from multiple experts to explore how deep learning can enhance intrusion detection.

The book covers foundational and advanced topics, including machine learning and deep learning methods, feature extraction, real-world datasets, anomaly detection, IoT security, and zero-day attack detection. Each chapter includes practical examples and case studies to illustrate how these techniques work in real-world applications.

This book is designed for researchers, graduate students, and cybersecurity professionals seeking a comprehensive understanding of AI-driven solutions for network security. The goal is to provide a reference that inspires both academic research and practical implementations.

Julian F.

Head of Cybersecurity

I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.

Addison B.

Field Engineer

I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.

Amir M.

Data Platform Tech Lead

I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
