The risk of sophisticated cyberattacks against
real-time services has dramatically grown due to the quick
adoption of cloud computing in smart city infrastructures.
Due to their high false alarm rates and limited flexibility,
traditional security measures frequently fail to identify clever
and changing crimes. An intelligent hybrid learning approach
for real-time cloud security threat detection in smart cities is
proposed in this research. The suggested method combines
deep learning and machine learning approaches to improve
classification
accuracy,
identification,
temporal
attack
pattern
and feature representation. Standard
performance indicators, including as accuracy, precision,
recall, F1-score, false alarm rate, and detection time, are used
in extensive tests to assess the model's efficiency. According to
experimental data, the suggested hybrid model performs
better, achieving an accuracy of 96.3% and drastically
lowering the false alarm rate to 2.1%. Its viability for real
time deployment in cloud systems for smart cities is further
confirmed by the decreased detection time. The suggested
methodology provides a scalable and dependable way to
improve cloud security tolerance.
In order to facilitate massive data processing, real
time service delivery, and intelligent decision-making in
fields like public safety, healthcare, transportation, and
energy management, smart cities are depending more and
more on cloud computing infrastructures. The digital
foundation of smart urban ecosystems is formed by the
constant data collecting and analytics made possible by the
integration of Internet of Things (IoT)[1] devices, edge
computing, and cloud platforms. However, a variety of
cyber security risks, such as distributed denial-of-service
(DDoS) attacks, data breaches, malware injection, insider
threats, and advanced persistent threats, are also made
possible by smart cities' heavy reliance on cloud-based
services. These attack have the potential to seriously[2]
