Terli Swathi, K. B. N. Abhinay · International Journal of Advanced Research in Science Communication and Technology · 2025
The proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has brought convenience and connectivity but also unprecedented security challenges. Traditional Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) struggle with the scale, heterogeneity, and resource constraints of IoT networks. Artificial Intelligence (AI)-enabled IDS models, especially those based on Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL), have emerged as promising solutions. This research paper investigates the effectiveness of AI-enabled IDS in IoT environments through a comprehensive empirical study. It includes a review of related literature, outlines clear research objectives and hypotheses, describes the research design and sampling method, and presents statistical analysis of experimental results using a benchmark dataset. The paper concludes with a discussion on the implications, limitations, and future directions.
