Preventing Exfiltration of Sensitive Data by Malicious Insiders or Malwares

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Data exfiltration is a serious threat as highlighted in recent leakage of sensitive data that resulted in huge economic losses as well as unprecedented breaches of national security. The aim of this project is to develop a comprehensive and robust solution for detection and prevention of sensitive data exfiltration attempts by malware and unauthorised human users. Expected outcomes include scalable monitoring methods and efficient algorithms that will be able to prevent real-time exfiltration and identify previously undetected exfiltration of sensitive data. This should provide significant benefits to governments, defence networks as well as businesses and health sectors, as it will protect them from sophisticated cyber attacks.
