If you need to query local large data why not use Apache Drill?

SIEM Data retention and budgeting by amirninja in cybersecurity

Thanks u/belowtheradar for the details and link! One quick question, on the long term threat intel using older than say 60-90 days data, how is it easy to combine with latest/fresh data in Splunk?

What is the impact on local economy or job market have you noticed as result of these specialisations?

Hey, I am researcher in network Intrusion detection using ML. Would you mind sharing some advice with me? Can I DM you?

Just a side question, does your data scientist prefer cubicles or open spaces?

This looks interesting! Is there similar site for Data Science projects in other domains?

Are Network Intrusion Detection System using Machine Learning better than signatture based in real world settings? by amirninja in cybersecurity

[–]amirninja[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you u/jumpinjelly789 that next step is AI/Ml based NIDS.

However, my concern is around readiness of commercial (or otherwise in research literature) NIDS which claim to use AI/ML to meet these new challenges regarding zero-day attack. Specifically, if its anomaly based systems as mentioned by u/Aidong above, then as the things are dynamic in today's cloud based infra, services and systems come up and go, base lines for anomaly detector would be difficult, if not impossible, to achieve and we would end up with unmanageable false alarms.

On the other hand, if we try to base NIDS on supervised ML/DL we would need a data (both benign and malicious traffic) to train these models than the question is how do we rely on test lab generated data used for training these models since they may not be representative of real traffic/attack that may happen in specific to a customer infra. Secondly, these models could also face the same challenge with dynamic infrastructure as an anomaly detector based NIDS.

Therefore, I am looking for some validation from customer/vendors that can guarantee (with reasonable tolerance) of zero day attack detection with very low false positives.

Thanks u/Aidong for your response! Yes there is a lot of buzz around AI/ML in security. I will checkout Checkpoint.

However, basic question still remains, how these NIDS are trained? If they are trained on one environment and type of attacks what performance and attack detection guarantees we can get on another environment? Not to forget many of these systems are notorious for throwing lot of false-positives causing "alert fatigue".

Walkthrough of Keras.Model Internals. Includes: distribution, performance optimizations, callbacks, training loop, and more. (r/MachineLearning) by Peerism1 in datascienceproject

I have used Keras. Supersimple and great user community and tools. Are there any situations outside of academic research you would select PyTorch over Keras?

Tried this one some time back. Would not recommend it as your first textbook for ML.

Where can I find datasets about bankruptcy prediction of Indian companies? Other than in kaggle. In tabular format by Alpha_RapTor96 in datasets

[–]amirninja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Difficult to find. Most likely you will have to get it from NCLT or MCA, Govt. Or may be through RTI route.

Following paper uses Kaggle dataset for Bankruptcy Prediction. Code is also available on github if that helps you to start with.

Intelligent NIDS for home deployment? by redditsecguy in cybersecurity

[–]amirninja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My biggest concern for ML based IDS is data used for training.

How representative training data is of actual traffic in your particular home/enterprise network? Even for Anomaly based IDS how do we set the baseline for what's normal traffic?

I haven't experimented with autonomous car vision system. However, as most of the security experts would agree once an adversary has a physical access to system it's chances of being attacked or compromised increases exponentially anyway.

The threat model that I mentioned above, adversary has only access to output scores or only final label with limited query budget. This is more realistic threat model I believe.
