Cyber Threat Intelligence for Secure Smart City

Smart city improved the quality of life for the citizens by implementing information communication technology (ICT) such as the internet of things (IoT). Nevertheless, the smart city is a critical environment that needs to secure it is network and data from intrusions and attacks. This work proposes a hybrid deep learning (DL) model for cyber threat intelligence (CTI) to improve threats classification performance based on convolutional neural network (CNN) and quasi-recurrent neural network (QRNN). We use QRNN to provide a real-time threat classification model. The evaluation results of the proposed model compared to the state-of-the-art models show that the proposed model outperformed the other models. Therefore, it will help in classifying the smart city threats in a reasonable time.
