Machine Learning for DoS Attack Detection in IoT Systems.

This study focuses on enhancing DoS attack detection in IoT systems through a Machine Learning approach that combines class balancing, feature selection, and optimized classifiers. Utilizing the Edge IIoT dataset, we applied SMOTE and Random Un-dersampling for class balance and employed DNN, Random Forest, and PCA for feature selection. We evaluated six technique combinations across four classifiers (DNN, SVM, XGBoost, and Random Forest), finding that certain combinations notably improve detection efficiency and accuracy. This research contributes to IoT security by offering an effective methodology for DoS attack detection, setting a foundation for further advances in IoT system protection against security threats.
