A Smart Agent Design for Cyber Security Based on Honeypot and Machine Learning

الملخص EN

The development of Internet and social media contributes to multiplying the data produced on the Internet and the connected nodes, but the default installation and the configuration of variety of software systems represent some security holes and shortcomings, while the majority of Internet users have not really set up safety awareness, leading to huge security risks.

With the development of network attack techniques, every host on the Internet has become the target of attacks.

Therefore, the network information security cannot be ignored as a problem.

To deal with 0-day and future attacks, the honeypot technique can be used not only passively as an information system, but also to reinforce the traditional defense systems against future attacks.

In this paper, we present an introduction of machine learning and honeypot systems, and based on these technologies, we design a smart agent for cyber-attack prevention and prediction.
