The growing deployment of IoT devices has led to unprecedented interconnection and information sharing. However, it has also presented novel difficulties with security. Using intrusion detection systems (IDS) that are based on artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), this research study proposes a unique strategy for addressing security issues in Internet of Things (IoT) networks. This technique seeks to address the challenges that are associated with these IoT networks. The use of intrusion detection systems (IDS) makes this technique feasible. The purpose of this research is to simultaneously improve the present level of security in ecosystems that are connected to the Internet of Things (IoT) while simultaneously ensuring the effectiveness of identifying and mitigating possible threats. The frequency of cyber assaults is directly proportional to the increasing number of people who rely on and utilize the internet. Data sent via a network is vulnerable to interception by both internal and external parties. Either a human or an automated system may launch this attack. The intensity and effectiveness of these assaults are continuously rising. The difficulty of avoiding or foiling these types of hackers and attackers has increased. There will occasionally be individuals or businesses offering IDS solutions who have extensive domain expertise. These solutions will be adaptive, unique, and trustworthy. IDS and cryptography are the subjects of this research. There are a number of scholarly articles on IDS. An investigation of some machine learning and deep learning techniques was carried out in this research. To further strengthen security standards, some cryptographic techniques are used. Problems with accuracy and performance were not considered in prior research. Furthermore, further protection is necessary. This means that deep learning can be even more effective and accurate in the future.

Cloud computing has become increasingly popular in the modern world. While it has brought many positives to the innovative technological era society lives in today, cloud computing has also shown it has some drawbacks. These drawbacks are present in the security aspect of the cloud and its many services. Security practices differ in the realm of cloud computing as the role of securing information systems is passed onto a third party. While this reduces managerial strain on those who enlist cloud computing it also brings risk to their data and the services they may provide. Cloud services have become a large target for those with malicious intent due to the high density of valuable data stored in one relative location. By soliciting help from the use of honeynets, cloud service providers can effectively improve their intrusion detection systems as well as allow for the opportunity to study attack vectors used by malicious actors to further improve security controls. Implementing honeynets into cloud-based networks is an investment in cloud security that will provide ever-increasing returns in the hardening of information systems against cyber threats.

Artificial Intelligence used in future networks is vulnerable to biases, misclassifications, and security threats, which seeds constant scrutiny in accountability. Explainable AI (XAI) methods bridge this gap in identifying unaccounted biases in black-box AI/ML models. However, scaffolding attacks can hide the internal biases of the model from XAI methods, jeopardizing any auditory or monitoring processes, service provisions, security systems, regulators, auditors, and end-users in future networking paradigms, including Intent-Based Networking (IBN). For the first time ever, we formalize and demonstrate a framework on how an attacker would adopt scaffoldings to deceive the security auditors in Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS). Furthermore, we propose a detection method that auditors can use to detect the attack efficiently. We rigorously test the attack and detection methods using the NSL-KDD. We then simulate the attack on 5G network data. Our simulation illustrates that the attack adoption method is successful, and the detection method can identify an affected model with extremely high confidence.

The recent 5G networks aim to provide higher speed, lower latency, and greater capacity; therefore, compared to the previous mobile networks, more advanced and intelligent network security is essential for 5G networks.

The performance evaluations are first conducted on two well-known datasets-NSL-KDD and CICIDS 2017; then, the practical testing of proposed system is performed in 5G industrial IoT environments. To demonstrate detection against network threats in real 5G environments, this study utilizes the 5G model factory, which is downscaled to a real smart factory that comprises a number of 5G industrial IoT-based devices.

With the rapid advancement of technology and the expansion of available data, AI has permeated many aspects of people s lives. Large Language Models(LLMs) such as ChatGPT are increasing the accuracy of their response and achieving a high level of communication with humans. These AIs can be used in business to benefit, for example, customer support and documentation tasks, allowing companies to respond to customer inquiries efficiently and consistently. In addition, AI can generate digital content, including texts, images, and a wide range of digital materials based on the training data, and is expected to be used in business. However, the widespread use of AI also raises ethical concerns. The potential for unintentional bias, discrimination, and privacy and security implications must be carefully considered. Therefore, While AI can improve our lives, it has the potential to exacerbate social inequalities and injustices. This paper aims to explore the unintended outputs of AI and assess their impact on society. Developers and users can take appropriate precautions by identifying the potential for unintended output. Such experiments are essential to efforts to minimize the potential negative social impacts of AI transparency, accountability, and use. We will also discuss social and ethical aspects with the aim of finding sustainable solutions regarding AI.

AI pair programmers, such as GitHub s Copilot, have shown great success in automatic code generation. However, such large language model-based code generation techniques face the risk of introducing security vulnerabilities to codebases. In this work, we explore the direction of fine-tuning large language models for generating more secure code. We use real-world vulnerability fixes as our fine-tuning dataset. We craft a code-generation scenario dataset (C/C++) for evaluating and comparing the pre-trained and fine-tuned models. Our experiments on GPT-J show that the fine-tuned GPT-J achieved 70.4\% and 64.5\% ratios of non-vulnerable code generation for C and C++, respectively, which has a 10\% increase for C and a slight increase for C++ compared with the pre-trained large language model.

Systems with artificial intelligence components, so-called AI-based systems, have gained considerable attention recently. However, many organizations have issues with achieving production readiness with such systems. As a means to improve certain software quality attributes and to address frequently occurring problems, design patterns represent proven solution blueprints. While new patterns for AI-based systems are emerging, existing patterns have also been adapted to this new context. The goal of this study is to provide an overview of design patterns for AI-based systems, both new and adapted ones. We want to collect and categorize patterns, and make them accessible for researchers and practitioners. To this end, we first performed a multivocal literature review (MLR) to collect design patterns used with AI-based systems. We then integrated the created pattern collection into a web-based pattern repository to make the patterns browsable and easy to find. As a result, we selected 51 resources (35 white and 16 gray ones), from which we extracted 70 unique patterns used for AI-based systems. Among these are 34 new patterns and 36 traditional ones that have been adapted to this context. Popular pattern categories include architecture (25 patterns), deployment (16), implementation (9), or security \& safety (9). While some patterns with four or more mentions already seem established, the majority of patterns have only been mentioned once or twice (51 patterns). Our results in this emerging field can be used by researchers as a foundation for follow-up studies and by practitioners to discover relevant patterns for informing the design of AI-based systems.

The advent of Generative AI has marked a significant milestone in artificial intelligence, demonstrating remarkable capabilities in generating realistic images, texts, and data patterns.

Our paper delves into the multifaceted challenges of privacy and copyright protection within the data lifecycle. We advocate for integrated approaches that combines technical innovation with ethical foresight, holistically addressing these concerns by investigating and devising solutions that are informed by the lifecycle perspective. This work aims to catalyze a broader discussion and inspire concerted efforts towards data privacy and copyright integrity in Generative AI.CCS CONCEPTS• Software and its engineering Software architectures; • Information systems World Wide Web; • Security and privacy Privacy protections; • Social and professional topics Copyrights; • Computing methodologies Machine learning.

Procurement is a critical step in the setup of systems, as reverting decisions made at this point is typically time-consuming and costly. Especially Artificial Intelligence (AI) based systems face many challenges, starting with unclear and unknown side parameters at design time of the systems, changing ecosystems and regulations, as well as problems of overselling capabilities of systems by vendors. Furthermore, the AI Act puts forth a great deal of additional requirements for operators of critical AI systems, like risk management and transparency measures, thus making procurement even more complex.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as one of the most formative technologies of the century and further gains importance to solve the big societal challenges (e.g. achievement of the sustainable development goals) or as a means to stay competitive in today’s global markets. The role as a key enabler in many areas of our daily life leads to a growing dependence, which has to be managed accordingly to mitigate negative economic, societal or privacy impacts. Therefore, the European Union is working on an AI Act, which defines concrete governance, risk and compliance (GRC) requirements. One of the key demands of this regulation is the operation of a risk management system for High-Risk AI systems. In this paper, we therefore present a detailed analysis of relevant literature in this domain and introduce our proposed approach for an AI Risk Management System (AIRMan).

We propose a new security risk assessment approach for Machine Learning-based AI systems (ML systems). The assessment of security risks of ML systems requires expertise in ML security.
