Employing Big Data for cyber Attacks Analysis

Ankit Srivastava, K. Venkatesh

Abstract: Many enterprises have made substantial investments in security information and event management and log management technologies over the years to collect, manage and analyze logs. Advances in large-scale analytics enable a well-honed security program to use data to spot anomalies and analyze attacks. However, it is easy to be overcome by a deluge of indicators and warnings derived from this data. In this paper I am trying to explore the big data usage in the analysis of cyber-attacks.
