• Focused Research (1) "Using Deep Learning on URL Strings to Detect Rogue Websites"[374KB]

  While the Internet is now used to provide a range of useful services, it is also increasingly being used maliciously. In this issue, we present our attempt to use deep learning to prevent cyberattacks.

• Focused Research (2) "Submarine Cables and Internet Resiliency"[1.62MB]

  The IIJ Innovation Institute is engaged in research that helps to improve the resiliency of the global Internet through measurement and analysis. In this chapter, we report on research that aims to improve resiliency by understanding the submarine cables that underpin the Internet.
