• Abstract: The rapid expansion of Internet of Things (IoT) networks has introduced new security challenges, necessitating efficient and reliable methods for intrusion detection. In this study, a detection framework based on hyperdimensional computing (HDC) is proposed to identify and classify network intrusions using the NSL-KDD dataset, a standard benchmark for intrusion detection systems. By leveraging the capabilities of HDC, including high-dimensional representation and efficient computation, the proposed approach effectively distinguishes various attack categories such as DoS, probe, R2L, and U2R, while accurately identifying normal traffic patterns. Comprehensive evaluations demonstrate that the proposed method achieves an accuracy of 99.54%, significantly outperforming conventional intrusion detection techniques, making it a promising solution for IoT network security. This work emphasizes the critical role of robust and precise intrusion detection in safeguarding IoT systems against evolving cyber threats.

  Internet of Things (IoT) networks contain benign traffic far more than abnormal traffic, with some rare attacks. Most existing studies have been focused on sacrificing the detection rate of the majority class in order to improve the detection rate of the minority class. We propose a lightweight framework named S2CGAN-IDS to expand the number of minority categories in both data space and feature space.
