To address evolving security challenges in cloud computing, this study proposes a hybrid deep learning architecture integrating Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) and Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Units (BiGRU) for cloud intrusion detection. The BiLSTM-BiGRU model synergizes BiLSTM's long-term dependency modeling with BiGRU's efficient gating mechanisms, achieving a detection accuracy of 96.7% on the CIC-IDS 2018 dataset. It outperforms CNN-LSTM baselines by 2.2% accuracy, 3.3% precision, 3.6% recall, and 3.6% F1-score while maintaining 0.03% false positive rate. The architecture demonstrates operational efficiency through 20% reduced computational latency and 15% lower memory foo... More >

This paper introduces ViTDroid, a novel hybrid model that combines Vision Transformers (ViTs) and recurrent neural networks (RNNs) to enhance Android and IoT malware detection. ViTDroid addresses critical challenges by leveraging ViTs to capture global spatial dependencies and RNNs (LSTM and GRU) to model temporal patterns, enabling comprehensive analysis of complex malware behaviors. Additionally, the model integrates explainability tools, such as LIME and SHAP, to enhance transparency and trustworthiness, essential for real-world cybersecurity applications. The study evaluates ViTDroid's performance against conventional models, including RNN, LSTM, and GRU, using accuracy, precision, recal... More >

In recent years, vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) have faced growing security concerns, particularly from Denial of Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks. These attacks flood the network with malicious traffic, disrupting services and compromising resource availability. While various techniques have been proposed to address these threats, this study presents an optimized framework leveraging advanced deep-learning models for improved detection accuracy. The proposed Intrusion Detection System (IDS) employs Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), and Deep Belief Networks (DBN) alongside robust feature selection techniques, Random Projecti...
