In the last few decades, various network attacks have emerged. This phenomenon requires
serious consideration to address its extensive consequences. To overcome the effects of …

This paper presents a taxonomy of intrusion response systems (IRS), classifying a number of
research papers published during the past decade that provide us with many valuable …

This book discusses the evolution of distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, how to
detect a DDoS attack when one is mounted, how to prevent such attacks from taking place …

In recent years, we have seen notable changes in the way attackers infiltrate computer
systems compromising their functionality. Research in intrusion detection systems aims to …

Cyber attacks and malicious activities are rapidly becoming a major threat to proper secure
organization. Many security tools may be installed in distributed systems and monitor all …

Forecasting future attacks is a big challenge for network administrators because future is
generally unknown. Nevertheless, some information about the future can help us make …

Given the always increasing size of computer systems, manually protecting them in case of
attacks is unfeasible and error-prone. For this reason, until now, several model-based …

Intrusion Response is a relatively new field of research. Recent approaches for the creation
of Intrusion Response Systems (IRSs) use Reinforcement Learning (RL) as a primary …

Response cost evaluation is a major part of the Intrusion Response System (IRS). Although
many automated IRSs have been proposed, most of them use statically evaluated …

The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things and the emergence of edge computing-based
applications has led to a new wave of cyber-attacks, with intensity and complexity that has …
