SCTR7: Data Science and Analytics

OVERVIEW For those interested in the rapidly emerging field of cybersecurity data science (CSDS), below is a corpus of 33 book-length works. The list covers publications going back to 2001, although two-thirds of the works (22 out of 33) were published in the last five years (2016 to 2020). The works cover a broad range […]

A challenging aspect of cybersecurity data science (CSDS) concerns a lack of labeled datasets which record incidents and attacks. Such data is necessary for understanding attack vectors and for training and validating predictive models. A number of cybersecurity research datasets are now available and should be of interest to researchers and practitioners: • CSE-CIC-IDS2018 on […]

Future Shock: Growing Vulnerabilities and Liabilities Cybersecurity data science (CSDS) brings hope to organizations challenged by evolving cyber threats. A rapidly developing field, CSDS utilizes advanced analytics to address security gaps in an increasingly data-driven, interconnected world. The consequences of ignoring security challenges are rising. According to the Cisco 2018 Annual Cybersecurity Report, over half of cyber-attacks resulted in […]
