Our team just published this technical report on ResearchGate:
Virtualized Cyberspace - Visualizing Patterns & Anomalies for Cognitive Cyber Situational Awareness
ABSTRACT
Quote:
This paper presents patterns and anomalies in cyberspace based on the results of research and development into visualization tools and processing methods for virtualized cyberspace situational awareness. In this paper, we present independent research into virtualizing cyberspace with actual operational data showing a number of situational patterns and anomalies. These situational patterns include bots disguised as normal web users, large bot networks, bot networks using IP address space allocated to defunct companies and more. We present the background, motivation, our techniques, initial results, and future direction toward the critical goals of cybersecurity and realizing human situational awareness in the cyber domain.
