In this article, we first discuss how such data sources are involved in threats to systems' integrity, and then how they can be leveraged along with knowledge-based tools to tackle a set of challenges in the cybersecurity domain. Finally, we present a brief discussion of our roadmap for research and development in the near future to address the set of ever-evolving cyber threats that our systems face every day.","doi":"10.24963/ijcai.2019/896","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2019/896","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2019/0896.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2019/896.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2019/bibtex/896","volume":{"slug":"2019","title":"Proceedings of the Twenty-Eighth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 2019","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2019/","year":2019,"location":"Macao","dates":"10-16 August 2019","editors":"Sarit Kraus","isbn":"978-0-9992411-4-1","publisher":"International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence Organization","doi_prefix":"10.24963/ijcai.2019"},"section":"Early Career","track":"Early Career","number":896,"pages":{"first":6403,"last":6407},"keywords":["Knowledge Representation and Reasoning: Non-classical Logics for Knowledge Representation","Knowledge Representation and Reasoning: Reasoning about Knowlege and Belief","Uncertainty in AI: Uncertainty in AI","Multidisciplinary Topics and Applications: Security and Privacy"],"videos":[],"references":[{"position":1,"raw":"[Almukaynizi et al., 2018] Mohammed Almukaynizi, Eric- sson Marin, Eric Nunes, Paulo Shakarian, Gerardo I.
