Intrusion Detection for IoT Network Security with Deep learning

IoT devices has witnessed a substantial increase due to the growing demand for smart devices. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are critical components for safeguarding IoT networks against cyber threats. This study presents an advanced approach to IoT network intrusion detection, leveraging deep learning techniques and pristine data. We utilize the publicly available CICIDS۲۰۱۷ dataset, which enables comprehensive training and testing of intrusion detection models across various attack scenarios, such as Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, port scans, botnet activity, and more. Our goal is to provide a more effective method than the previous methods. Our proposed deep learning model incorporates dense transition layers and LSTM architecture, designed to capture both spatial and temporal dependencies within the data. We employed rigorous evaluation metrics, including sparse categorical cross-entropy loss and accuracy, to assess model performance. The results of our approach show outstanding accuracy, reaching a peak of ۰.۹۹۷ on the test data. Our model demonstrates stability in loss and accuracy metrics, ensuring reliable intrusion detection capabilities. Comparative analysis with other machine learning models confirms the effectiveness of our approach. Moreover, our study assesses the model's resilience to Gaussian noise, revealing its capacity to maintain accuracy in challenging conditions. We provide detailed performance metrics for various attack types, offering insights into the model's effectiveness across diverse threat scenarios.
