• Abstract: As the Internet of Things (IoT) continues to expand, ensuring the security of connected devices has become increasingly critical. Traditional Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) often fall short in managing the dynamic and large-scale nature of IoT networks. This paper explores how Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) techniques can significantly enhance IDS performance in IoT environments. We provide a thorough overview of various IDS deployment strategies and categorize the types of intrusions common in IoT systems. A range of ML methods -- including Support Vector Machines, Naive Bayes, K-Nearest Neighbors, Decision Trees, and Random Forests -- are examined alongside advanced DL models such as LSTM, CNN, Autoencoders, RNNs, and Deep Belief Networks. Each technique is evaluated based on its accuracy, efficiency, and suitability for real-world IoT applications. We also address major challenges such as high false positive rates, data imbalance, encrypted traffic analysis, and the resource constraints of IoT devices. In addition, we highlight the emerging role of Generative AI and Large Language Models (LLMs) in improving threat detection, automating responses, and generating intelligent security policies. Finally, we discuss ethical and privacy concerns, underscoring the need for responsible and transparent implementation. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive framework for developing adaptive, intelligent, and secure IDS solutions tailored for the evolving landscape of IoT.
