On securing IoT from Deep Learning perspective
Yazan Otoum, Amiya R. Nayak · 2020
The extensive growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) has impacted diverse applications, including smart homes and cities, Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) and smart factories. IoT integrates billions of smart devices -predicted to increase from 27 billion in 2017 to 125 billion by 2030- and manages communication between them. This degree of expanded connectivity requires extensive further analysis with respect to security, and the involvement of millions of factors and users increases vulnerability in IoT environments. However, Deep Learning (DL) approaches, which originated from machine learning (ML), have been efficient in many research fields, and current studies show the effectiveness of DL for IoT security applications. In this paper, we present detailed analyses of IoT security requirements and challenges, discuss the specific role of DL and review state-of-art research work in IoT environments using DL approaches. We also performed comparative analysis of DL algorithms such as RNN, LSTM, CNN, DBN and AE. And finally, we identified research issues in the current investigations, and outlined the future directions of DL algorithms in IoT security domains.
