Publication Open Access A physics-informed machine learning for detecting suspicious satellite maneuvers (orbital manipulation)(Elsevier B.V., 2026-07) Karunathilake K.K.H.; Abeywardena, K, Y; Vecchini, SSatellite systems have become prime targets for cyberthreats given their critical role in global infrastructure and general lack of security. Among these, orbital manipulation, a form of satellite hijacking, is a particularly severe threat that can disrupt essential operations and impact national security. To address these concerns, this research proposes an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based anomaly detection system that utilizes Machine Learning (ML) models to analyze telemetry data for possible orbital manipulations with a multi-gate physics architecture grounded in orbital mechanics, to verify that detected anomalies are kinematically inconsistent and are therefore genuine integrity failures. This research demonstrates that temporal-based models like LSTM are essential for this domain, achieving high recall rates which are then validated by the physics component. While the framework includes multiple physical constraints, this study specifically validates the energy-based Vis-Viva gate, with the Tsiolkovsky and Angular Momentum gates established as architectural designs for future verification. This study concludes that successful AI deployment in orbital cybersecurity requires a comprehensive approach that integrates domain-specific context and physics-informed validation beyond traditional performance metrics.Publication Embargo Autonomous Cyber AI for Anomaly Detection(2021 3rd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2021-12-09) Madhuvantha, K.A.N.; Hussain, M.H.; De Silva, H.W.D.T.; Liyanage, U.I.D.; Rupasinghe, L.; Liyanapathirana, C.Since available signature-based Intrusion Detection systems (IDS) are lacking in performance to identify such cyber threats and defend against novel attacks. It does not have the ability to detect zero-day or advanced malicious activities. To address the issue with signature-based IDS, a possible solution is to adopt anomaly-based detections to identify the latest cyber threats including zero days. We initially focused on network intrusions. This research paper discusses detecting network anomalies using AIbased technologies such as machine learning (ML) and natural language processing (NLP). In the proposed solution, network traffic logs and HTTP traffic data are taken as inputs using a mechanism called beats. Once relevant data has been extracted from the captured traffic, it will be passed to the AI engine to conduct further analysis. Algorithms such as Word2vec, Convolution Neural Network (CNN), Artificial Neural networks (ANN), and autoencoders are used in order to conduct the threat analysis. HTTP DATASET CSIC 2010, that NSL-KDD, CICIDS are the benchmarking datasets used in parallel with the above algorithms in order to receive high accuracy in detection. The outputted data is integrated and visualized using the Kibana dashboard and blockchain model is implemented to maintain and handle all the data.
