1. Introduction

Multimedia data represents different media formats and content types (Usman et al., 2019; Zhang et al., 2019). This data type encompasses various forms of unimodal and multimodal content, including text, images, video, audio, and more. Unlike traditional data, which may be strictly numerical or textual, multimedia data is often complex, high-dimensional, and contains rich information that can be unstructured and semi-structured. Multimedia data is widely used in various applications such as entertainment, education, advertising, and communication, leveraging multiple sensory channels to convey complex information more effectively (Li & Liu, 2023). Understanding the complexities of multimedia data is crucial for fields such as computer science, communications, entertainment, and digital media technologies. Multimedia data processing involves capturing, storing, transmitting, and manipulating various media types like text, audio, images, and video (Abd El-Latif et al., 2023). Multimedia data processing involves the analysis and interpretation of different forms of media, such as images, videos, audio, and text. Traditional techniques have been limited, especially when dealing with large, complex, unstructured multimedia datasets. Multimedia data processing uses computational algorithms and hardware to analyze and transform this diverse data into an easily accessed, edited, or shared format. This field is essential for streaming services, video conferencing, and augmented reality applications.

Deep learning employs neural networks with multiple layers to analyze various forms of data. It excels at pattern recognition, enabling applications like image and speech recognition, NLP, and autonomous vehicles. Deep learning algorithms automatically learn to identify features and make decisions, reducing the need for manual feature extraction (Ahmad Wani et al., 2023; Balaji, 2021; Islam, Liu, Wang et al, 2020). With the advent of deep learning, the processing and understanding of multimedia data have seen significant breakthroughs. Deep learning has recently emerged as a powerful tool for tackling the challenges, improving the efficiency and accuracy of multimedia data processing tasks (Hiriyannaiah, 2020). Deep learning for multimedia data processing utilizes neural networks to analyze and interpret complex data types like images, audio, and video. Automated feature extraction and pattern recognition significantly enhance tasks such as image classification, speech recognition, and video analysis. This approach has revolutionized applications ranging from content recommendation to autonomous vehicles, offering improved accuracy and efficiency over traditional methods.

Cybersecurity protects digital systems, networks, and data from unauthorized access, damage, or theft (El Latif, 2023). It encompasses a range of practices and technologies designed to safeguard personal, corporate, and governmental information (Islam, Uddin, Islam et al, 2020). Given the increasing prevalence of cyber threats, cybersecurity has become critical for ensuring information integrity, confidentiality, and availability in the digital age. Deep learning for cybersecurity employs neural networks to detect and mitigate cyber threats in real time (Cavallaro et al., 2020). It excels at pattern recognition, enabling it to identify anomalies and potential vulnerabilities in large datasets quickly and accurately. This advanced approach enhances traditional security measures, providing a more dynamic defense against increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks.
