Computational intelligence techniques for automatic detection of Wi-Fi attacks in wireless IoT networks

摘要

These days, number of smart products based on Internet-of-Things (IoT) has been increased. These products are unified via various wireless technologies like, Bluetooth, Z-wave, Wi-Fi, Zigbee, etc. While the need on the wireless networks has improved, the assaults against them throughout the time have expanded on top. In order to identify these assaults, an intrusion detection system (IDS) with a prominent precision and low identification time is required. In this work, a machine learning (ML) based wireless intrusion detection system (WIDS) for wireless networks to effectively identify assaults against them has been proposed. A ML prototype has been implemented to categorize the wireless network records into ordinary or one of the particular assault categories. The operation of an IDS is extensively enhanced when the attributes are more discriminative and delegate. Different attribute selection methods have been investigated to identify the best set of attributes for the WIDS. The proposed model is evaluated on aegean wireless intrusion dataset using various parameters like attack detection rate, detection time, precision, F-measure, etc. The experimental evaluation is carried out in the tools like, Weka, Rstudio and Anaconda Navigator Python. Finally, the experimental result shows the best performing ML algorithm with best set of reduced attributes.
