Towards an effective deep learning-based intrusion detection system in the internet of things

Abstract

Distributed Sensor Networks play a vital role in the day-to-day world of computing applications, from the cloud to the Internet of Things (IoT). These computing applications devices are normally attached with the microcontrollers like Sensors, actuators, and Adriano network connectivity. Defensive network with an Intrusion Detection System thus serves as the need of modern networks. Despite decades of inevitable development, the Intrusion Detection System is still a challenging research area as the existing Intrusion Detection System operates using signature-based techniques rather than anomaly detection. The existing Intrusion Detection System are thus facing challenges for improvement in Intrusion Detection, Handling heterogeneous data sources is hard for discovering zero-day attacks in IoT networks. This paper presents Filtered Deep Learning Model for Intrusion Detection with a Data Communication approach. The proposed model is composed of five phases: Initialization of Sensor Networks, Cluster Formation in addition to Cluster Head Selection, Connectivity, Attack Detection, and Data Broker. The proposed Model for Intrusion Detection was found to outperform the existing Deep Learning Neural Network and Artificial Neural Network. Experimental results showed a better result of 96.12% accuracy than the dominant algorithms.
