The AIAS project is driving forward its mission to enhance cybersecurity resilience by integrating Explainable AI (XAI) into its security platform and ensuring robust validation through real-world testing. These two vital research, technical, and innovation objectives form a critical part of our efforts to bridge the gap between AI-powered security solutions and human decision-making.
XAI Model – Transparent and Actionable Security Recommendations: Understanding the complexity of cyber threats and adversarial AI attacks requires more than just advanced detection systems; it demands clarity and trust in AI-driven decisions. To address this need, AIAS is developing a novel XAI-based recommendation engine to support security teams in mitigating cyber threats.
Key Aspects of the XAI Model:
- Human-in-the-Loop Decision Support: AIAS’s XAI model will empower security professionals by providing clear, transparent, and easily understandable recommendations for mitigation actions.
- If-This-Then-That (IFTTT) Approach: The XAI model will present mitigation steps following the intuitive IFTTT principle, ensuring that human operators understand the reasoning behind each recommendation and can confidently select the most appropriate action.
- Life-Long Learning: Leveraging data extracted from AIAS’s virtualization layer and historical security data, the XAI model will continuously adapt and refine its recommendations based on the effectiveness of past security controls against adversarial AI attacks.
- User-Friendly Interface: The AIAS platform will feature an accessible and intuitive interface, enabling security teams to swiftly comprehend, evaluate, and act on the XAI-generated recommendations.
Real-World Platform Testing and Validation: The AIAS platform will undergo rigorous testing and evaluation to ensure its robustness and effectiveness in mitigating cyber threats. This process will be spearheaded by our industrial partners, who bring extensive expertise in AI and cybersecurity platforms.
Testing and Validation Approach:
- Real-Life Use Cases: Industrial partners will lead the creation of realistic scenarios and attack simulations to evaluate the performance of the AIAS platform under diverse cyberattack and adversarial AI attack conditions.
- Prototype Evaluation: The developed platform will be assessed for its detection capabilities, mitigation effectiveness, and overall usability. Key insights and conclusions from these tests will guide further refinements.
- Implementation Documentation: Comprehensive documentation detailing the testing process, platform performance, and mitigation strategies will accompany the release of the AIAS prototype, ensuring that end-users can seamlessly adopt and deploy the platform.
These objectives underline AIAS’s commitment to delivering cutting-edge, human-centric cybersecurity solutions that not only detect and defend against AI-driven threats but also empower security teams with the knowledge and tools needed to act decisively.
Stay connected with AIAS as we continue to push the boundaries of adversarial AI defense and secure the future of AI systems.
