LFreeDA: Label-Free Drift Adaptation for Windows Malware Detection

Machine learning ML-based malware detectors degrade over time as concept drift introduces new and evolving families unseen during training. Retraining is limited by the cost and time of manual labeling or sandbox analysis. Existing approaches mitigate this via drift detection and selective...

ExpIDS: a Drift-Adaptable Network Intrusion Detection System with Improved Explainability

Despite all the advantages associated with Network Intrusion Detection Systems NIDSs that utilize machine learning ML models, there is a significant reluctance among cyber security experts to implement these models in real-world production settings. This is primarily because of their opaque natur...

Adapting under Fire: Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning for Adversarial Drift in Network Security

Evolving attacks are a critical challenge for the long-term success of Network Intrusion Detection Systems NIDS. The rise of these changing patterns has exposed the limitations of traditional network security methods. While signature-based methods are used to detect different types of attacks, th...
