Interesting to research some of those names in your post. Konstantinos Demertzis is a researcher in cyber security.

His research papers mention spiking neural networks. For example a paper: "Evolving Computational Intelligence System for Malware Detection" has this quote in abstract. This paper proposes a novel approach, which uses minimal computational power and resources, to identify Packed Executable (PEX), so as to spot the existence of malware software. It is an Evolving Computational Intelligence System for Malware Detection (ECISMD) which performs classification by Evolving Spiking Neural Networks (eSNN), in order to properly label a packed executable. On the other hand, it uses an Evolving Classification Function (ECF) for the detection of malwares and applies Genetic Algorithms to achieve ECF Optimization.

Hope that makes sense with dot joining.
Has a few papers on cyber security. Can find them by the following link.
link.springer.com

On phone so can't post link properly.
Once on site search Konstantinos Demertzis.
That will bring up all his papers.

There are quite a few papers on cyber security he is involved in. At work and a lot of reading so will look later. Some of you may be interested in having a look.
