Anatha Charan Ojha, Ankita Agarwal, G. Swetha · 2023

We provide a unique method to enhance cybersecurity threat prediction using generative adversarial networks (GANs). Through competitive training, the generator and discriminator parts of GANs are customized for application in the cybersecurity industry. Three key algorithms underlie this method. First, to create believable threats, GANs are employed in the GAN Architecture for Threat Generation. The discriminator distinguishes between actual and phony threat data, while the generator generates false threat data. These simulated assaults are a significant part of cybersecurity threat predictions. Second, Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural networks are used in the Threat Scenario Prediction Algorithm's Time Series Forecasting Algorithm. To predict possible outcomes, long short-term memory (LSTM) models the temporal dependency of historical threat data. This approach offers perceptions into prospective threats, enabling the adoption of preventative actions. Finally, Markov chains are used by the Threat Evolution Algorithm to depict the dynamic evolution of cybersecurity threats. In order to shed light on how dangers vary over time, it forecasts the chance of a transition from one state of hazard to another. We get a deeper understanding of threat trajectories and how they influence an organization's cybersecurity by adopting a more dynamic approach. This comprehensive approach combines state-of-the-art techniques in threat scenario generation, forecasting, and evolution modeling, providing organizations with a robust toolset to proactively address cybersecurity challenges.
