Abstract

The advancement in smart agriculture through the Internet of Things (IoT) devices has increased the risk of cyber-attacks. Most of the existing malware detection techniques are unable to detect new variants of malware and suffer from poor accuracy. To overcome the challenges of new malware, this research work proposes a novel three-phase Deep Malware Detection (DMD) framework based on the fusion of Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) named as DMD-DWT-GAN, for IoT-based Smart Agriculture (IoT-SA). This work applied DWT for multiresolution analysis by decomposing the image into Approximation coefficients (Ac) and Detail coefficients (Dc). Finally, a lightweight Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is employed for in-depth analysis of the malware family. The performance of the proposed framework is evaluated using two benchmark datasets such as IoT malware and Malimg. The proposed framework has achieved 99.99% accuracy on both datasets and is better than the state-of-art models.
