A network security situation assessment method based on fusion model

This research introduces an innovative network security situation assessment (NSSA) model, designed to overcome the shortcomings in feature extraction quality and efficiency observed in existing methods. At the core of this model is a fusion model (FM), which uniquely combines an attention mechanism with a bi-directional gated recurrent unit (BiGRU). This FM framework is adept at extracting pivotal information pertinent to various cyber threats. It employs the attention mechanism to assign appropriate weights to these crucial features, thereby elevating the model’s precision. The BiGRU, in synergy with newly proposed quantitative indicators, is responsible for generating the final evaluation results, offering a more refined measure of the cybersecurity stance. Comparative threat detection experiments reveal that the FM model exhibits superior performance across multiple evaluation metrics, marking a significant advancement in the field of network security assessment.
