ABSTRACT

With the recent surge in cybercrime, effective response and prediction have become increasingly important. This study proposes a predictive model for predicting cybercrime incidents and arrest counts through time series analysis. In this research, we utilized Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (SARIMA) and Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average with Exogenous Variables (ARIMAX) models to analyze the trends and patterns of cybercrime occurrences, applying hyperparameter tuning to identify the optimal predictive variables. To evaluate the performance of each model, we used Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE), and Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) metrics to compare model accuracy and derive the optimal model. The results demonstrate that the proposed model can effectively predict cybercrime incidents and arrests, providing a valuable tool for anticipating future cybercrime risks and informing preventive strategy development.
