Abstract

Cloud Computing (CC) is the most promising and advanced technology to store data and offer online services in an effective manner. When such fast evolving technologies are used in the protection of computer-based systems from cyberattacks, it brings several advantages compared to conventional data protection methods. Some of the computer-based systems that effectively protect the data include Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), Internet of Things (IoT), mobile devices, desktop and laptop computer, and critical systems. Malicious software (malware) is nothing but a type of software that targets the computer-based systems so as to launch cyber-attacks and threaten the integrity, secrecy, and accessibility of the information. The current study focuses on design of Optimal Bottleneck driven Deep Belief Network-enabled Cybersecurity Malware Classification (OBDDBN-CMC) model. The presented OBDDBN-CMC model intends to recognize and classify the malware that exists in IoT-based cloud platform. To attain this, Z-score data normalization is utilized to scale the data into a uniform format. In addition, BDDBN model is also exploited for recognition and categorization of malware. To effectually fine-tune the hyperparameters related to BDDBN model, Grasshopper Optimization Algorithm (GOA) is applied. This scenario enhances the classification results and also shows the novelty of current study. The experimental analysis was conducted upon OBDDBN-CMC model for validation and the results confirmed the enhanced performance of OBDDBN-CMC model over recent approaches.
