Abstract
Advanced cyberattacks outperform traditional threat detection methods in the rapidly expanding cybersecurity field. Advanced Machine Learning (ML) algorithms can detect network traffic and system problems using AI-based Anomaly Detection (AD) for cybersecurity in real-time. Signature-based systems may overlook new and subtle threats. This paper examines Artificial Intelligence (AI) driven AD systems' design, methodology, and efficacy. The process includes data preprocessing and feature extraction. Unsupervised learning and real-time data streams can detect insider threats and zero-day attacks without attack signature information-AI-based cybersecurity AD strengths and downsides. According to numerous research and trials, its high accuracy and memory in detecting anomalies reduce false positives compared to older methods. Cyber attackers use protected channels to launch attacks. Cryptographic channels obscure legal and malicious network traffic. Alternative studies use AI and traffic information to discover anomalies. Integrating AI, block chain, and Quantum Computing (QC) can boost cybersecurity. According to research, growing cyber risks require adaptive, scalable, and intelligent AI-powered cybersecurity solutions. Deep generative models can detect novel cyber-physical dangers and minimize Cyber Physical System (CPS) susceptibility without labelled information.
