The cyber-world can be a dark and dangerous place, full of silent yet raging malware, exfiltration, DDoS and botnet battles.
Join this exciting project and learn how to ‘use the force’ against real-world cyber-attacks.
Research goal
Throughout this project we will:
Explore the anatomy of various kinds of cyber-attacks
Collect data on attack patterns
Analyse the data to identify key attributes
Develop machines that are trained on these attributes
Use these machines to detect multiple types of cyber-attacks
Develop methods to deflect or blocks such attacks.
You’ll gain cutting-edge skills in telecommunications, data analysis, machine learning, forensics, user interfaces and human psychology.
