Applying AI/ML to Kubernetes Logging and Monitoring in Enhancing Observability Through Intelligent Systems (Published)
As Kubernetes adoption accelerates in cloud-native architectures, ensuring robust observability across dynamic, large-scale clusters has become a critical operational challenge. Traditional logging and monitoring systems—relying heavily on rule-based alerting and manual log inspection—struggle to scale with the volume, velocity, and complexity of modern workloads. These approaches often lead to alert fatigue, delayed incident response, and incomplete root cause analysis.This paper explores the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) techniques to enhance observability within Kubernetes environments. By leveraging unsupervised learning for anomaly detection, natural language processing (NLP) for log parsing, and supervised models for event classification, the proposed intelligent observability framework significantly improves signal-to-noise ratios and accelerates troubleshooting processes. Through empirical evaluation on a production-grade Kubernetes testbed, the system demonstrated a 35% improvement in anomaly detection accuracy and reduced mean time to resolution (MTTR) by over 40% compared to baseline tools. These results highlight the transformative potential of AI/ML in enabling proactive, scalable, and context-aware monitoring solutions for complex cloud-native infrastructures.

Beyond Traditional WAFs: Behavioral Analytics for Advanced API Threat Detection and Response (Published)
Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) have emerged as critical infrastructure components in modern digital services, yet traditional Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) prove inadequate against sophisticated attacks targeting business logic flaws and access control vulnerabilities. Behavioral threat detection platforms address these gaps by establishing baseline patterns of legitimate API usage and identifying deviations that signal potential threats such as credential stuffing, data scraping, and unauthorized data exfiltration. These systems leverage machine learning algorithms to analyze API traffic in real-time, generating contextual alerts that distinguish between benign anomalies and genuine security incidents. Advanced capabilities include automated discovery of undocumented or shadow APIs, classification of sensitive data flows, and implementation of tokenization strategies to protect information in transit. Integration with Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems enables orchestrated incident response, while continuous posture assessment ensures ongoing compliance with security policies. This comprehensive framework transforms API security from reactive rule-based filtering to proactive behavioral monitoring, significantly reducing the attack surface and enabling organizations to detect and respond to threats that would otherwise bypass conventional security controls.
