Cloud
computing has transformed the landscape of modern IT infrastructure, and Amazon
Web Services (AWS) has become one of the leading platforms for enterprises
around the globe. Yet, as cloud environments have become more complex and
larger in scale, they pose serious security risks, such as data breaches,
insider threats, and advanced cyberattacks. Traditional security methods that
depend on rule-based monitoring are often inadequate in the face of new and
emerging threats, failing to ensure timely detection. This paper introduces a
unique AI based anomaly detection and predictive analytic framework towards
securing the cloud (AWS). This proposed model incorporates ML and DL algorithms
for AWS-native security tools like AWS GuardDuty, AWS Security Hub, AWS
CloudTrail. The system identifies abnormal behavior using both supervised
and unsupervised learning methods to forecast potential security threats before
they happen. Results from scientific experiments exhibit that the proposed
intelligent automated system which utilises AI techniques for threat detection
produces a 28.7% and 19.5% increase in threat detection accuracy and reduction
of false positives compared to non-AI past proposed systems based on rules.
More importantly, the time taken to identify real-time threats is cut down by
35% — allowing for quick incident response. It further assesses how ensemble
learning models such as Random Forest, LSTM(Long Short-Term Memory) and
Autoencoders improve anomaly detection performance. The advantages of deploying
predictive analytics to complement AWS security controls to guard against APTs
& insider attacks – a case study of a large-scale AWS deployment. Set your
security nests at the top; it shows that AI-powered anomaly
detection considerably boosts AWS security measures, creating a more resilient
cloud habitat in finding the advance cyber threats. The proposed framework
encompasses a novel combination of machine learning techniques and
cloud-specific metrics to enhance the complexity and electricity of AWS-based
security operations, ultimately providing a significant advancement in the
field.
