SentinelFusion based machine learning comprehensive approach for enhanced computer forensics

Abstract

In the rapidly evolving landscape of modern technology, the convergence of blockchain innovation and machine learning advancements presents unparalleled opportunities to enhance computer forensics. This study introduces SentinelFusion, an ensemble-based machine learning framework designed to bolster secrecy, privacy, and data integrity within blockchain systems. By integrating cutting-edge blockchain security properties with the predictive capabilities of machine learning, SentinelFusion aims to improve the detection and prevention of security breaches and data tampering. Utilizing a comprehensive blockchain-based dataset of various criminal activities, the framework leverages multiple machine learning models, including support vector machines, K-nearest neighbors, naive Bayes, logistic regression, and decision trees, alongside the novel SentinelFusion ensemble model. Extensive evaluation metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score are used to assess model performance. The results demonstrate that SentinelFusion outperforms individual models, achieving an accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score of 0.99. This study’s findings underscore the potential of combining blockchain technology and machine learning to advance computer forensics, providing valuable insights for practitioners and researchers in the field.
