Only the chairs can edit In the fight against cyber attacks, Network Softwarization (NS) is a flexible and adaptable shield, using advanced software to spot malicious activity in regular network traffic. However, the availability of comprehensive datasets for mobile networks, which are fundamental for the development of Machine Learning (ML) solutions for attack detection near their source, is still limited. Cross-Domain Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be the key to address this, although its application in Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) is still at its infancy. To address these challenges, we deployed an end-to-end O-RAN network, that was used to collect data from the RAN and the transport network. These datasets allow us to combine the knowledge from an in-network ML traffic classifier for attack detection to bolster the training of an ML-based traffic classifier specifically tailored for the RAN. Our results demonstrate …
