Abstract

Criminals are working day and night to get hold of the data. They are also getting more intelligent and are also using AI-powered threats to exploit vulnerabilities to perform an attack. Information security is at a higher risk, now more than ever. Due to the popularity of internet usage by users, the IT infrastructure is prone to security threats. The damage done by computer malware and viruses is known to cost billions of US dollars. Hence, this paper reviews the ways of integrating technology such as machine learning, neural networks, deep learning, etc. which can help to develop an intelligent system to protect and prevent the IT infrastructure from security threats. The authors proposed AIVA, a Machine learning (ML) based detection system which is able to classify a suspicious object as “safe” or “dangerous”. AIVA is composed of three core components: static analysis, machine learning, and malicious detection.
