Bayesian Networks for Cyber Crimes

Bayes’ Theorem

• For an hypothesis H supported by evidence E:Pr(H|E) = Pr(E|H).Pr(H)/Pr(E)

• where– Pr(H|E) is the posterior probability of H, given E– Pr(E|H) is the likelihood of E, given H– Pr(H) is the prior probability of H, without E– Pr(E) is a normalisation factor

• We can use Pr(H)=½ for a zero bias on H• We can get Pr(E|H) from surveys of experts

Odds and Likelihood Ratio

• If:– Hp is the prosecution’s hypothesis– Hd is the defence’s hypothesis

• then:

• so:posterior odds = likelihood ratio x prior odds

Bayesian Networks

• Introduced by Judea Pearl in 1988• Enables the Bayesian inference to propagate

through a network (DAG) representing the evidential traces (Ei) and the associated sub-hypotheses (Hi) of a digital crime model

• Output is posterior probability of hypothesis H• Example: BitTorrent illegal P2P MP4 uploading

(‘initial seeder’) case
