With more than seven billion people actively using the Internet, the number of cyber attacks has increased, and personal data breaches have become a concern among the general public. The COVID-19 pandemic has only increased the use of online platforms and services for work and leisure activities, which opens the door to more scams, viruses, and other cyber security breaches. Guided by SEO techniques and research regarding dangerous website and domain patterns, we have designed and implemented a visual system that tracks suspicious links on an active webpage and marks them in order to alert users to proceed with caution. Our AI utilizes linear regression to best detect trends in URL parsing, comparing them with registered unsafe links to see if they pose similar threats. The results reveal that AI isn’t entirely accurate since some trends are hard to decipher; however, it can reliably flag certain redirects and out-of-domain links that would otherwise remain hidden to users.

Torrential amounts of different electronic products are being manufactured daily for everyday use. With this advancement in the world of Internet technology, cybersecurity of software and hardware systems are now prerequisites for major business’ operations. Every technology on the market has multiple vulnerabilities that are exploited by hackers and cyber-criminals daily to manipulate data sometimes for malicious purposes. In any system, the Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is a fundamental component for ensuring the security of devices from digital attacks. Recognition of new developing digital threats is getting harder for existing IDS. Furthermore, advanced frameworks are required for IDS to function both efficiently and effectively. The commonly observed cyber-attacks in the business domain include minor attacks used for stealing private data. This article presents a deep learning methodology for detecting cyber-attacks on the Internet of Things using a Long Short Term Networks classifier. Our extensive experimental testing show an Accuracy of 99.09%, F1-score of 99.46%, and Recall of 99.51%, respectively. A detailed metric representing our results in tabular form was used to compare how our model was better than other state-of-the-art models in detecting cyber-attacks with proficiency.

The Internet, particularly through the application of World Wide Web (WWW) technology, has proved to be a very attractive medium for publishing. However, the difficulties of finding appropriate information online and then of ensuring its long term accessibility have created problems for libraries. Practices that work for books and other printed materials do not always translate directly to online materials. The National Library of Australia's PANDORA project has been set up to develop policies and procedures for ensuring long term access to significant Australian publications which are accessible only in an online environment, and to establish and maintain a permanent archive ofthat material.
