A hybrid trust computing approach for IoT using social similarity and machine learning.

Every year, millions of new devices are added to the Internet of things, which has both great benefits and serious security risks for user data privacy. It is the device owners' responsibility to ensure that the ownership settings of Internet of things devices are maintained, allowing them to communicate with other user devices autonomously. The ultimate goal of the future Internet of Things is for it to be able to make decisions on its own, without the need for human intervention. Therefore, trust computing and prediction have become more vital in the processing and handling of data as well as in the delivery of services. In this paper, we compute trust in social IoT scenarios using a hybrid approach that combines a distributed computation technique and a global machine learning approach. The approach considers social similarity while assessing other users' ratings and utilize a cloud-based architecture. Further, we propose a dynamic way to aggregate the different computed trust values. According to the results of the experimental work, it is shown that the proposed approaches outperform related work. Besides, it is shown that the use of machine learning provides slightly better performance than the computing model. Both proposed approaches were found successful in degrading malicious ratings without the need for more complex algorithms.

The proposed hybrid deep learning intrusion prediction IoT (HDLIP-IoT) framework.

Throughout the past few years, the Internet of Things (IoT) has grown in popularity because of its ease of use and flexibility. Cyber criminals are interested in IoT because it offers a variety of benefits for users, but it still poses many types of threats. The most common form of attack against IoT is Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS). The growth of preventive processes against DDoS attacks has prompted IoT professionals and security experts to focus on this topic. Due to the increasing prevalence of DDoS attacks, some methods for distinguishing different types of DDoS attacks based on individual network features have become hard to implement. Additionally, monitoring traffic pattern changes and detecting DDoS attacks with accuracy are urgent and necessary. In this paper, using Modified Whale Optimization Algorithm (MWOA) feature extraction and Hybrid Long Short Term Memory (LSTM), shown that DDoS attack detection methods can be developed and tested on various datasets. The MWOA technique, which is used to optimize the weights of the LSTM neural network to reduce prediction errors in the hybrid LSTM algorithm, is used. Additionally, MWOA can optimally extract IP packet features and identify DDoS attacks with the support of MWOA-LSTM model. The proposed MWOA-LSTM framework outperforms standard support vector machines (SVM) and Genetic Algorithm (GA) as well as standard methods for detecting attacks based on precision, recall and accuracy measurements.
