• Authors: Rajarshi Roy Chowdhury, Azam Che Idris, Pg Emeroylariffion Abas
• Abstract summary: A device fingerprinting (DFP) method has been proposed for device identification, based on digital footprints, which devices use for communication over a network. A subset of nine features have been selected from the network and transport layers of a single transmission control protocol/internet protocol packet to generate device-specific signatures. Results have shown that the method is able to distinguish device type with up to 100% precision using the random forest (RF) classifier, and classify individual devices with up to 95.7% precision.

• Abstract: The rapidly increasing number of internet of things (IoT) and non-IoT devices has imposed new security challenges to network administrators. Accurate device identification in the increasingly complex network structures is necessary. In this paper, a device fingerprinting (DFP) method has been proposed for device identification, based on digital footprints, which devices use for communication over a network. A subset of nine features have been selected from the network and transport layers of a single transmission control protocol/internet protocol packet based on attribute evaluators in Weka, to generate device-specific signatures. The method has been evaluated on two online datasets, and an experimental dataset, using different supervised machine learning (ML) algorithms. Results have shown that the method is able to distinguish device type with up to 100% precision using the random forest (RF) classifier, and classify individual devices with up to 95.7% precision. These results demonstrate the applicability of the proposed DFP method for device identification, in order to provide a more secure and robust network.

  Device identification is the process of identifying a device on Internet without using its assigned network or other credentials. In a network, conventional IoT devices identify each other by utilizing IP or MAC addresses, which are prone to spoofing. To mitigate the issue in IoT devices, fingerprint (DFP) for device identification can be used.

  We propose a novel Resolution Adaptive Network (RANet), which is inspired by the intuition that low-resolution representations are sufficient for classifying "easy" inputs. In RANet, the input images are first routed to a lightweight sub-network that efficiently extracts low-resolution representations. High-resolution paths in the network maintain the capability to recognize the "hard" samples.
