Accurate Criterion of Advanced Persistent
trouble( APT) juggernauts is challenging due to
lapping attack ways, evolving adversary geste, and the
unshaped nature of Cyber trouble Intelligence( CTI)
reports.
While former work demonstrated the
effectiveness of a crossbred machine knowledge and
rule- rested approach for APT criterion, it reckoned on
static, report- position analysis. This paper extends the
crossbred frame by incorporating temporal correlation
of CTI reports, criterion confidence estimation, and
answerable intelligence labors to meliorate robustness
and critic trust. The proposed extension correlates
trouble reports across time windows using recreating
pointers and contextual patterns, enabling more stable
and harmonious criterion opinions. An explainability
estate provides transparent defense through point
position benefactions, rule- rested confirmation, and
index terrain. Experimental results indicate that the
extended frame reduces criterion nebulosity among
lapping APT groups while maintaining computational
effectiveness, making it suitable for deployment in real
world security operations surroundings.
