AI-Powered Threat Detection for Cybersecurity
Develop an AI model to detect and analyze cybersecurity threats, particularly focusing on the types of attacks described in the news (swatting, network intrusions). The model should be able to process various data sources (log files, network traffic, social media posts) to identify suspicious activity and potentially predict future attacks. The solution should prioritize accuracy and minimize false positives, incorporating explainability features to understand the model's reasoning.
