Abstract

Machine learning (ML) methodologies have significantly transformed cybersecurity by offering sophisticated instruments that not only identify but also avert and alleviate cyber threats. This research study seeks to examine the convergence of machine learning and cybersecurity, focusing on diverse methodologies and their use in enhancing cybersecurity measures. The study examines several machines learning methods, including Graph Neural Networks, Adversarial Learning, Federated Learning, Explainable AI, and Reinforcement Learning. Every algorithm is essential for enhancing the identification and mitigation of cyber assaults. Graph Neural Networks facilitate the modelling of intricate linkages within cybersecurity data. It aids not just in forecasting future events but also in identifying anomalies and analyzing network traffic. Adversarial Learning assists in training machine learning models to address the difficulty of producing misleading input data that can deceive any model, hence enhancing their efficacy. Federated Learning is examined as a method for training machine learning models across decentralized networks while preserving data privacy and enhancing model accuracy. Explainable AI methodologies primarily offer transparency and interpretability in machine learning-driven cybersecurity decisions, which are crucial for comprehension and confidence in automated security systems. Reinforcement Learning is focused on a trial-and-error methodology, wherein the model acquires new tasks through a system of rewards and penalties. These sophisticated algorithms jointly improve the effectiveness, precision, and clarity of cybersecurity protocols, offering strong protection against emerging cyber threats.
