Machine Learning and Security (eBook, ePUB)

Protecting Systems with Data and Algorithms

Beschreibung

Can machine learning techniques solve our computer security problems and finally put an end to the cat-and-mouse game between attackers and defenders? Or is this hope merely hype? Now you can dive into the science and answer this question for yourself! With this practical guide, youll explore ways to apply machine learning to security issues such as intrusion detection, malware classification, and network analysis.Machine learning and security specialists Clarence Chio and David Freeman provide a framework for discussing the marriage of these two fields, as well as a toolkit of machine-learning algorithms that you can apply to an array of security problems. This book is ideal for security engineers and data scientists alike.Learn how machine learning has contributed to the success of modern spam filtersQuickly detect anomalies, including breaches, fraud, and impending system failureConduct malware analysis by extracting useful information from computer binariesUncover attackers within the network by finding patterns inside datasetsExamine how attackers exploit consumer-facing websites and app functionalityTranslate your machine learning algorithms from the lab to productionUnderstand the threat attackers pose to machine learning solutions

Autor

Clarence Chio is an engineer and entrepreneur who has given talks, workshops, and training courses on machine learning and security at DEF CON and other security/software engineering conferences and meetups across more than a dozen countries. He was previously a member of the security research team at Shape Security, a community speaker with Intel, and a security consultant for Oracle. Clarence advises a handful of startups on security data science, and is the founder and organizer of the Data Mining for Cyber Security meetup group, the largest gathering of security data scientists in the San Francisco Bay area. He holds a BS and MS in computer science from Stanford University, specializing in data mining and artificial intelligence. David Freeman is a research scientist/engineer at Facebook working on spam and abuse problems. He previously led anti-abuse engineering and data science teams at LinkedIn, where he built statistical models to detect fraud and abuse and worked with the larger machine learning community at LinkedIn to build scalable modeling and scoring infrastructure. He is an author, presenter, and organizer at international conferences on machine learning and security, such as NDSS, WWW, and AISec, and has published more than twenty academic papers on mathematical and statistical aspects of computer security. He holds a PhD in mathematics from UC Berkeley and did postdoctoral research in cryptography and security at CWI and Stanford University.
