Modeling, Measuring, and Mitigating Cybercrime

Attacks are becoming increasingly complex, and we therefore need more advanced techniques to model, detect, and predict such attacks. In this project we use cutting edge machine learning techniques to make sense of network attacks, developing prediction models and tools that allow us to better understand multi-step attacks.
