Team member of: TAILOR Coordinated Action T3.1 Explainable malware/security threat detection. Objectives: (i) testing different algorithms able to provide explanations, e.g. DL Learner, xDNNs, (ii) reviewing other “classic” methods and their possible extension/hybridization towards explainability (iii) generalisation of the findings on other relevant areas

Team member of: ORBIS - Ontological representation for security of information systems. APVV. Goals: In the first phase of the project, collect and analyze relevant data from running information systems and collaborate with existing sharing platforms like MISP. In the second phase, we want to test methods for storing and sharing acquired data in ontological representations. Finally, we want to test the usability of ontological representation to acquire new knowledge and to detect malicious behavior.
