A Comperative Study of Watering Hole Attack Detection Using Supervised Neural Network

The security landscape necessitates creative solutions to defend against targeted attacks due to the growing sophistication of cyber threats. This study explores the nefarious tactic known as "watering hole attacks using supervised neural networks to detect and prevent these attacks. The neural network identifies patterns in website behavior and network traffic associated with such attacks. Testing on a dataset of confirmed attacks shows a 99% detection rate with a mere 0.1% false positive rate, demonstrating the model's effectiveness. In terms …
