IoT Attack Detection using Machine Learning and Deep Learning in Smart Home

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized the traditional Internet, pushing past its former boundaries by implementing smart linked gadgets. The IoT is steadily becoming a staple of everyday life, having been implemented into various diverse applications, such as cities, smart homes, and transportation. However, despite the technological advancements that the IoT brings, various new security risks have also been introduced due to the development of new types of attacks. This prevents current intelligent IoT applications from adaptively learning from other intelligent IoT applications, which leaves them in a volatile state. In this paper, we conducted a structured literature review (SLR) on Smart Home's IoT attack detection using machine learning and deep learning. Four journal databases were used to perform this review: IEEE, Science Direct, Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), and SpringerLink. Sixty articles were selected and studied, where we noted the various patterns and techniques present in the framework of the selected research. We also took note of the different machine learning and deep learning methods, the types of attacks, and the Network layers present in Smart Home. By conducting an SLR, we analyzed the numerous techniques of IoT attack detection for smart homes proposed by various theoretical studies. We enhanced the studied literature by proposing a new solution for better IoT attack detection in smart homes.
