• Abstract: Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices are known to be the source of many security problems, and as such, they would greatly benefit from automated management. This requires robustly identifying devices so that appropriate network security policies can be applied. We address this challenge by exploring how to accurately identify IoT devices based on their network behavior, while leveraging approaches previously proposed by other researchers. We compare the accuracy of four different previously proposed machine learning models (tree-based and neural network-based) for identifying IoT devices. We use packet trace data collected over a period of six months from a large IoT test-bed. We show that, while all models achieve high accuracy when evaluated on the same dataset as they were trained on, their accuracy degrades over time, when evaluated on data collected outside the training set. We show that on average the models' accuracy degrades after a couple of weeks by up to 40 percentage points (on average between 12 and 21 percentage points). We argue that, in order to keep the models' accuracy at a high level, these need to be continuously updated.

  DDoS attacks conducted with IoT devices can cause a significant downtime of applications running on the Internet. We propose a hybrid feature selection algorithm that selects only the most useful features and passes those features into an XGBoost model. Our model attains an accuracy of 99.993% on the CIC IDS 2017 dataset and a recall of 97.64 % on the CIC IoT 2023 dataset.

• Contextual-Bandit Anomaly Detection for IoT Data in Distributed Hierarchical Edge Computing [65.78881372074983]
  IoT devices can hardly afford complex deep neural networks (DNN) models, and offloading anomaly detection tasks to the cloud incurs long delay. We propose and build a demo for an adaptive anomaly detection approach for distributed hierarchical edge computing (HEC) systems. We show that our proposed approach significantly reduces detection delay without sacrificing accuracy, as compared to offloading detection tasks to the cloud.
