Cloud-enabled enterprises face increasingly sophisticated cybersecurity threats, including adversarial attacks that target network vulnerabilities, cloud workloads, and critical enterprise data. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) play a central role in identifying, predicting, and mitigating these threats. This study explores the integration of predictive analytics, machine learning, and autonomous response mechanisms in IDS architectures for cloud environments. By analyzing attack patterns and simulating adversarial scenarios, the research proposes a framework for enhancing threat detection accuracy, reducing response time, and improving overall enterprise security posture. Results demonstrate the effectiveness of predictive IDS in mitigating cyber risks while maintaining operational efficiency and scalability.
