Abstract:
The astonishing growth of sophisticated ever-evolving cyber threats and attacks throws the entire Internet-of-Things (IoT) infrastructure into chaos. As the IoT belongs to the infrastructure of interconnected devices, it brings along significant security challenges. Cyber threat analysis is an augmentation of a network security infrastructure that primarily emphasizes on detection and prevention of sophisticated network-based threats and attacks. Moreover, it requires the security of network by investigation and classification of malicious activities. In this study, we propose a DL-enabled malware detection scheme using a hybrid technique based on the combination of a Deep Neural Network(DNN) and Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM) for the efficient identification of multi-class malware families in IoT infrastructure. The proposed scheme utilizes latest 2018 dataset named as N_BaIoT. Furthermore, our proposed scheme is evaluated using standard performance metrics such as accuracy, recall, precision, F1-score, and so forth. The DL-based malware detection system achieves 99.96% detection accuracy for IoT based threats. Finally, we also compare our proposed work with other robust and state-of-the-art detection schemes.
