CISCO Publishes Anomaly Detection Article Featuring the QCM
/Como, December 19-th, 2019. CISCO has published an article on Anomaly Detection which features QCM - Quantitative Complexity Management by Ontonix. The article postulates that “zero trust and complexity management represent a new basic combination for a closed-loop approach to anomaly detection and mitigation for critical infrastructures.” The article is available at CISCO’s blog.
“Thanks to the QCM we no longer need to define anomalies in advance and then train a Machine Learning algorithm to recognize them”, said Dr. J. Marczyk, the founder of Ontonix. “A sudden spike in complexity is an anomaly in itself for which training isn’t necessary. The number of anomalies that can emerge in complex systems and infrastructures is immense and it is a practical impossibility to define them all and then to train an ML tool to recognize them. Besides, training for anomalies in complex and expensive systems requires numerous examples of the said anomalies and this is a luxury that one can very rarely afford”, he added. “The article introduces for the first time the concept of complexity-based control, which allows one to drive the complexity of a given system to desired levels” he concluded.
