Overview

This book addresses a variety of problems that arise at the interface between AI techniques and challenging problems in cybersecurity. The book covers many of the issues that arise when applying AI and deep learning algorithms to inherently difficult problems in the security domain, such as malware detection and analysis, intrusion detection, spam detection, and various other subfields of cybersecurity. The book places particular attention on data driven approaches, where minimal expert domain knowledge is required. This book bridges some of the gaps that exist between deep learning/AI research and practical problems in cybersecurity. The proposed topics cover a wide range of deep learning and AI techniques, including novel frameworks and development tools enabling the audience to innovate with these cutting-edge research advancements in various security-related use cases. The book is timely since it is not common to find clearly elucidated research that applies the latest developments in AI to problems in cybersecurity.

Author Information

Mark Stamp has been active in the field of information security for more than three decades. Following his Ph.D. research in cryptography, he spent the better part of a decade as a cryptanalyst with the US National Security Agency (NSA), followed by two years developing a cybersecurity product for a Silicon Valley startup company. For the past 20 years, Dr. Stamp has been a faculty member in the Department of Computer Science at San Jose State University, where he has developed and regularly teaches courses in information security and machine learning. He has published more than 175 research articles, most of which are at the interface between information security and machine learning. Dr. Stamp has served as a co-editor for several books, including the Handbook of Information and Communication Security (Springer, 2010) and Malware Analysis Using Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning (Springer, 2021).  Martin Jureček is an assistant professor in computer science at Czech Technical University in Prague. He graduated from the Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, with a specialization in mathematical methods of information security. He received his Ph.D. at the Czech Technical University in Prague, Faculty of Information Technology, specializing in automatic malware detection. Dr. Jureček worked for five years as a malware researcher in the antivirus industry and two years as a data scientist on several projects in the field of information security for the banking and telecommunications sectors. He has been working as an assistant professor at the Czech Technical University in Prague for over ten years. His main research interests focus on the application of machine learning and artificial intelligence approaches to malware detection. Other areas of his interest are algebraic cryptanalysis and the security of cryptocurrencies.
