Abstract

The computers at cyber centres are vulnerable. They can be used for various illegal activities. Only the system-level security solutions are not sufficient to prevent these activities completely. There is a need for an intelligent scheme which identifies culprits based on behaviours and actions. This paper proposes an intelligent and environment based proactive security system for cyber centres, using cognitive agents. The agents are used for belief generation, belief analysis and to execute suitable security actions and pro-actions. This method of controlling the cyber crime at usage level, will be the requisite step towards preventing Internet abuse.
