• Abstract: The exponential expansion of IoT and 5G-Advanced applications has enlarged the attack surface for DDoS, malware, and zero-day intrusions. We propose an intrusion detection system that fuses a convolutional neural network (CNN), a bidirectional LSTM (BiLSTM), and an autoencoder (AE) bottleneck within a privacy-preserving federated learning (FL) framework. The CNN-BiLSTM branch captures local and gated cross-feature interactions, while the AE emphasizes reconstruction-based anomaly sensitivity. Training occurs across edge devices without sharing raw data. On UNSW-NB15 (binary), the fused model attains AUC 99.59 percent and F1 97.36 percent; confusion-matrix analysis shows balanced error rates with high precision and recall. Average inference time is approximately 0.0476 ms per sample on our test hardware, which is well within the less than 10 ms URLLC budget, supporting edge deployment. We also discuss explainability, drift tolerance, and FL considerations for compliant, scalable 5G-Advanced IoT security.

  We conduct a thorough system-level investigation of cyber threats within the Open Radio Access Network technology. We focus on machine learning (ML) intelligence components known as xApps within the O-RAN's near-real-time RAN Intelligent Controller (near-RT RIC) platform. Our study begins by developing a malicious xApp designed to execute adversarial attacks on two types of test data. To mitigate these threats, we utilize a distillation technique that involves training a teacher model at a high softmax temperature and transferring its knowledge to a student model trained at a lower softmax temperature.

  A deep neural network (DNN) can predict the beam that is best slanted to each UE by using the received signal strengths ( RSSs) from a subset of possible narrow beams. We present an adversarial attack by generating perturbations to manipulate the over-the-air captured RSSs as the input to the DNN. This attack reduces the IA performance significantly and fools the DNN into choosing the beams with small RSSs compared to jamming attacks with Gaussian or uniform noise.
