- Added ConnectionInfo class in CAD component to facilitate comparison and serialization of connection information.
- Removed test statements used to check the time taken by the cryptomining detector to perform the inference using different batch sizes.
- Added a function to properly measure the time taken by the cryptomining detector model to process a batch of connection statistics.
- Added IP addresses corresponding to known cryptomining connections to validate the cryptomining detector model performance in the classification task.
- Implemented several metrics in the CAD component to monitor the performance of the cryptomining detector model in the classification task.
- Implemented a function to export the performance metrics of the cryptomining detector in the classification task to an external file.
- Added script to retrieve performance metrics of the cryptomining detector in the classification task from CAD container.
