Cybersecurity hazards are now a big worry for both individuals and organisations due to the rapid rise of digital communication and internet-based services. Conventional rule-based security systems frequently fail to adequately identify novel or developing network threats. Machine learning techniques have been widely used for intelligent threat detection as a solution to this problem. Using cybersecurity traffic statistics, this study offers a machine learning-based method for spotting suspect network activity. Timestamp, source IP address, destination IP address, protocol number, packet length, and protocol indicators like TCP and UDP are among the network elements included in the dataset. Machine learning models that can differentiate between typical and suspect network activity are trained using these characteristics. The dataset is cleaned and prepared for model evaluation and training using data preparation techniques. After analysing network traffic patterns, the suggested method categorises them as either suspicious or legitimate. The outcomes of experiments show that machine learning algorithms can significantly increase the precision and effectiveness of threat identification in network environments. By offering an automated and intelligent method for identifying possible threats in real-time network data, the suggested strategy helps to improve cybersecurity monitoring systems.
