Highlights

  • Probabilistic detection of malicious events
  • Risk analysis with network variables
  • Configurable threshold for high risk
  • Foundation for prioritizing defenses

No public repository or demo link is published for this project yet.

Architecture

Applied guide with Bayesian logistic regression on traffic patterns and high-risk observation classification

Challenges

  • Capturing noisy signals without losing detection capability
  • Reducing false positives and false negatives
  • Explaining risk usefully for operations

Outcome

A more interpretable approach to prioritizing security events and evaluating risk with explicit uncertainty

Overview

Problem

Security needs to react to changing signals without relying solely on rigid rules.

Approach

I modeled malicious event probability with PyMC using traffic variables and network context.

Outcome

The model helps classify suspicious events and focus attention where risk is highest.
