讲座题目：A Data-driven Network Intelligence System for Cyber Security

摘要：In this talk, we present a data-driven network intelligence system for cyber security. With the support of extended computing, storage and networking resources to the network edge, fog computing is incorporated to the design of the system. The proposed system consists of three types of major components: edge enabled infrastructure, AI engines and decision platforms. Edge enabled infrastructure provides efficient and effective computing resources for parallel computing and data storage. AI engines produce optimal learning models for threat detection, and enable online machine learning for efficient model update. Decision platforms offer real-time network monitoring, anomaly detection, and threat mitigation. We demonstrate that the proposed data-driven network intelligence system achieves high detection accuracy, and provides robust computational performance.
