Zusammenfassung: | The detection of security attacks holds significant importance in IoT networks, primarily due to the escalating number of interconnected devices and the sensitive nature of the transmitted data. This paper introduces a novel methodology designed to identify both known and unknown attacks within IoT networks. For the identification of known attacks, our proposed approach employs a stacked multi-classifier trained with classwise features. To address the challenge of highly imbalanced classes without resorting to resampling, we utilize the Localized Generalized Matrix Learning Vector Quantization (LGMLVQ) approach to select the most relevant features for each class. The efficacy of this model is evaluated using the widely recognized NF-BoT-IoT dataset, demonstrating an impressive accuracy score of 99.9952%.. The proposed study also focuses on detecting unseen attacks leveraging a shallow autoencoder, employing the technique of reconstruction error thresholding. The efficiency of this approach is evaluated using benchmark datasets. namely NF-ToN-IoT and NF-CSE-CIC-IDS 2018. The model’s performance on previously unseen samples is noteworthy, with an average accuracy, precision, recall and F1-Score of 93.715%, 99.955%,90.865% and 95.145%, respectively. The proposed work presents significant contributions to IoT security by proposing a comprehensive solution with demonstrated performance in detecting both known and unknown attacks in the context of imbalanced data. |
