Introduction to the minitrack on machine learning and cyber threat intelligence and analytics, HICSS 2020

Abstract

One emerging research focus is cyber threat intelligence and analytics, which seeks to integrate and deploy different computing techniques such as big data analytics, sentiment analysis, artificial intelligence (e.g. machine learning) to perceive, reason, learn and defend against advanced cyber attacks or advanced persistent threats, as well as facilitating the collection, preservation and analysis of evidence that may then be used to identify and prosecute the perpetrators. This is the focus of the 'Machine Learning and Cyber Threat Intelligence and Analytics' mini-track, and in this introduction article, we will describe the eight papers accepted in this mini-track.
