The proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) systems has led to the generation of vast amounts of data, increasing the need for effective anomaly detection mechanisms to ensure system reliability and security. Traditional methods often fall short due to the high dimensionality and dynamic nature of IoT data. This paper presents a deep learning-based approach for real-time anomaly detection in IoT systems, leveraging the power of neural networks to identify patterns and anomalies within complex datasets. By employing deep learning algorithms such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks, this framework can efficiently detect abnormal behaviors in real-time, offering a significant improvement over conventional methods. The proposed system is trained on labeled datasets collected from IoT devices, allowing it to distinguish between normal and anomalous activity. Furthermore, the model adapts to new data, enhancing its detection capabilities over time. Experimental results demonstrate that this approach achieves high accuracy and low false-positive rates, making it suitable for deployment in real-world IoT environments. The framework’s scalability and adaptability highlight its potential for enhancing the security and reliability of IoT networks, particularly in critical applications such as smart cities, healthcare, and industrial IoT.
