Hands-On Artificial Intelligence for Cybersecurity

Network anomaly detection techniques

The techniques we have seen so far can also be adopted to manage anomaly detection and related attempts to gain unauthorized access to the corporate network. To fully understand the potential of anomaly detection techniques, we will trace its evolution in the cybersecurity area, illustrating the basic principles that characterize it.

In fact, anomaly detection has always been a research area of cybersecurity, particularly in the field of network security protection. However, anomaly detection is not limited to identifying and preventing network attacks, but can also be adopted in other areas, such as fraud detection and in the identification of possible compromises of user profiles.
