Abstract

Deep learning is a machine learning technology that allows computational models to learn via experience, mimicking human cognitive processes. This method is critical in the development of identifying certain objects, and provides the computational intelligence required to identify multiple objects and distinguish it between object A or Object B. On the other hand, malware is defined as malicious software that seeks to harm or disrupt computers and systems. Its main categories include viruses, worms, Trojan horses, spyware, adware, and ransomware. Hence, many deep learning researchers apply deep learning in their malware studies. However, few articles still investigate deep learning and malware in a bibliometric approach (productivity, research area, institutions, authors, impact journals, and keyword analysis). Hence, this paper reports bibliometric analysis used to discover current and future trends and gain new insights into the relationship between deep learning and malware. This paper’s discoveries include: Deployment of deep learning to detect domain generation algorithm (DGA) attacks; Deployment of deep learning to detect malware in Internet of Things (IoT); The rise of adversarial learning and adversarial attack using deep learning; The emergence of Android malware in deep learning; The deployment of transfer learning in malware research; and active authors on deep learning and malware research, including Soman KP, Vinayakumar R, and Zhang Y.

Abstract

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks pose a significant cybersecurity threat by exploiting vulnerabilities in web applications to inject malicious scripts, enabling unauthorized access and execution of malicious code. Traditional XSS detection systems often struggle to identify increasingly complex XSS payloads. To address this issue, this research evaluated the efficacy of Machine Learning algorithms in detecting XSS threats within online web applications. The study conducts a comprehensive comparative analysis of XSS attack detection using four prominent Machine Learning algorithms, which consist of Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), Random Forest (RF), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), and Support Vector Machine (SVM). This research utilizes a comparative methodology to assess the selected Machine Learning algorithms by analyzing their performance metrics, including confusion matrix, 10-fold cross-validation, and assessment of training time to thoroughly evaluate the models. By exploring dataset characteristics and evaluating the performance metrics of each selected algorithm, the study determined the most robust Machine Learning solution for XSS detection. Results indicate that Random Forest is the top performer, achieving 99.93% accuracy and balanced metrics across all criteria evaluated. These findings will significantly enhance web application security by providing reliable defenses against evolving XSS threats.
