Popis: The number of cyber threats is constantly increasing. In 2013, 200,000 malicious tools were identified each day by antivirus vendors. This figure rose to 800,000 per day in 2014 and then to 1.8 million per day in 2016! The bar of 3 million per day will be crossed in 2017. Traditional security tools (mainly signature-based) show their limits and are less and less effective to detect these new cyber threats. Detecting never-seen-before or zero-day malware, including ransomware, efficiently requires a new approach in cyber security management. This requires a move from signature-based detection to behavior-based detection. We have developed a data breach detection system named CDS using Machine Learning techniques which is able to identify zero-day malware by analyzing the network traffic.
