Advances in Learning Analytics for Intelligent Cloud-IoT Systems

Series Editor: Dr. Souvik Pal and Dr. Dac-Nhuong Le

The role of adaptation, learning analytics, computational Intelligence, and data analytics in the field of cloud-IoT systems is becoming increasingly essential and intertwined. The capability of an intelligent system depends on various self-decision-making algorithms in IoT devices. IoT-based smart systems generate a large amount of data (big data) that cannot be processed by traditional data processing algorithms and applications. Hence, this book series involves different computational methods incorporated within the system with the help of analytics reasoning and sense-making in big data, which is centered in the cloud and IoT-enabled environments. The series publishes volumes that are empirical studies, theoretical and numerical analysis, and novel research findings.

Submission to the series:

Please send proposals to Dr. Souvik Pal, Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Global Institute of Management and Technology, Krishna Nagar, West Bengal, India.

Our objective in writing this book was to provide the reader with an in-depth knowledge of how to integrate machine learning (ML) approaches to meet various analytical issues in cloud security deemed necessary due to the advancement of IoT networks. Although one of the ways to achieve cloud security is by using ML, the technique has long-standing challenges that require methodological and theoretical approaches. Therefore, because the conventional cryptographic approach is less frequently applied in resource-constrained devices, the ML approach may be effectively used in providing security in the constantly growing cloud environment. Machine learning algorithms can also be used to meet various cloud security issues for effective intrusion detection and zero-knowledge authentication systems. Moreover, these algorithms can also be used in applications and for much more, including measuring passive attacks and designing protocols and privacy systems. This book contains case studies/projects for implementing some security features based on ML algorithms and analytics. It will provide learning paradigms for the field of artificial intelligence and the deep learning community, with related datasets to help delve deeper into ML for cloud security.

This book is organized into five parts. As the entire book is based on ML techniques, the three chapters contained in “Part I: Conceptual Aspects of Cloud and Applications of Machine Learning,” describe cloud environments and ML methods and techniques. The seven chapters in “Part II: Cloud Security Systems Using Machine Learning Techniques,” describe ML algorithms and techniques which are hard coded and implemented for providing various security aspects of cloud environments. The four chapters of “Part III: Cloud Security Analysis Using Machine Learning Techniques,” present some of the recent studies and surveys of ML techniques and analytics for providing cloud security. The next three chapters in “Part IV: Case Studies Focused on Cloud Security,” are unique to this book as they contain three case studies of three cloud products from a security perspective. These three products are mainly in the domains of public cloud, private cloud and hybrid cloud. Finally, the two chapters in “Part V: Policy Aspects,” pertain to policy aspects related to the cloud environment and cloud security using ML techniques and analytics. Each of the chapters mentioned above are individually highlighted chapter by chapter below.
