Abstract
This work uses Memgraph, an open-source graph data platform, to analyze, visualize, and apply graph machine learning techniques to detect cybersecurity attack tactics in a newly created Zeek Conn log dataset, UWF-ZeekData22, generated in The University of West Florida’s cyber simulation environment. The dataset is transformed to a representative graph, and the graph’s properties studied in this paper are PageRank, degree, bridge, weakly connected components, node and edge cardinality, and path length. Node classification is used to predict the connection between IP addresses and ports as a form of attack tactic or non-attack tactic in the MITRE framework, implemented using Memgraph’s graph neural networks. Multi-classification is performed using the attack tactics, and three different graph neural network models are compared. Using only three graph features, in-degree, out-degree, and PageRank, Memgraph’s GATJK model performs the best, with source node classification accuracy of 98.51% and destination node classification accuracy of 97.85%.
