A Blockchain-based Collaborative Intrusion Detection Framework with Quantum Mayfly Optimization for Secure and Intelligent Threat Detection
Secure and transparent system for recording and verifying digital transactions across distributed networks. Distributed blockchain consensus is achieved through decentralized protocol rules, cryptographic authentication mechanisms, and scalable energy-efficient operations. The present study applies Quantum Mayfly Optimization (QMFO) within a blockchain-based collaborative intrusion detection framework. Collaborative intrusion detection systems (CIDS) have certainly carved their valued place in enhancing modern cybersecurity in the complex landscape of cyber threats. What the BCIDF brings into the picture is a new radical avenue to enhance the detection of new threats and information sharing. In this respect, the proposal cohesively combines distributed blockchain technology and collaborative intrusion detection to increase security, transparency, and trust within cyber realms. Fine-tuning the model parameters will improve blockchain classification accuracy and efficiency, and O(QMFO), a bio-inspired hybrid algorithm inspired by the principles of quantum leaf-edge swarm behavior, is directed toward ensuring the security and performance of blockchain networks. Quantum Mayfly optimization (QMFO) and a Blockchain-based Collaborative Intrusion Detection Framework (BCIDF) are designed to secure distributed networks by allowing tamper-resistant sharing of alerts in the case of an attack across the blockchain. The term 'Quantum Mayfly Optimizer (QMFO)' here is used to amplify performance, speed, and accuracy. Integration, therefore, guarantees the best detection and few false positives, and ensures adaptive actions against upcoming threats.
