Cybersecurity Threat Detection Using Deep Learning and Anomaly Detection Techniques

Through the use of combined deep learning and anomaly detection approaches, this research investigates the area of cybersecurity threat detection. The study proves the framework’s extraordinary success in recognizing as well as mitigating diverse cyber dangers, including insider threats and zero-day attacks, through practical testing and case studies. The framework establishes itself as a proactive cybersecurity solution adaptive to the changing threat landscape due to its high accuracy of 95%, low amount of false positives 5%, and quick reaction times. The recommendations cover user training, scalability, regulatory compliance, including cross-disciplinary collaboration. Behavioral analysis, AI explainability, IoT security, and countering quantum computing concerns should be the main areas of future research. These revelations help the cybersecurity industry become more resilient and well-prepared. In this research investigation, experiments on threat detection were conducted using deep learning algorithms, with a specific focus on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs). The findings of the study reveal that a detection accuracy of 93% was achieved by CNN, while a higher accuracy of 96% in threat detection was exhibited by RNN.
