Predictive analytics helps organizations anticipate cyber threats by analysing historical data, identifying patterns, and forecasting potential security incidents before they occur.
Cyber security data includes network logs, intrusion detection alerts, threat intelligence feeds, vulnerability reports, and user behaviour patterns.
Yes, the course covers various machine learning techniques, including supervised and unsupervised learning, for threat detection and risk prediction.
No, but familiarity with basic data analysis and cyber security concepts will be helpful. The course includes introductory content on predictive modelling techniques.
Predictive analytics for cyber security involves using data-driven models to anticipate cyber threats, detect vulnerabilities, and improve security measures before attacks occur.
Cyber risk management is measured using key performance indicators (KPIs) such as threat detection rates, incident response times, and the effectiveness of risk mitigation strategies.
