About GraSec
Most of the existing security monitoring solutions cannot cope with unknown and complex attacks due to the continual apparition of new threats, botnet propagation and command-and-control mechanisms. Recently, botnet detection systems which leverage communication graph analysis using machine learning have gained attention to overcome these limitations. Graph-based modeling and mining approaches have been proposed and provide interesting results.
Graph-based modeling offers the advantage of understanding complex attacks and determining the root cause of an attack. However, existing graph mining tools for anomaly detection over streaming events are not adapted for cyber-security problems while the corresponding data continuously appears in the form of complex graphs.
The workshop serves to bring together people from industry and academia including researchers, developers, and practitioners from a variety of fields working on graphs and their applications to network security and cybersecurity in general as well as blockchain. Moreover, the workshop allows attendees to share and discuss their latest findings from both theoretical and practical perspectives in several techniques and methods for graph modeling, mining, learning, and visualizing. The main goal of GraSec is to present research and experience results in graph applications on network and cybersecurity as well as the defensive and offensive tools.
