A Lightweight Signature-Based IDS for IoT Environment
This work addresses security lapses in resource-constrained IoT networks, but it appears incremental as it builds on existing signature-based methods with optimizations.
The paper tackled the problem of detecting intrusions in IoT environments by proposing a signature-based Intrusion Detection System (IDS) using an optimized pattern recognition algorithm, with results tested on the NSL KDD cup dataset to show its efficacy.
With the advent of large-scale heterogeneous networks comes the problem of unified network control resulting in security lapses that could have otherwise avoided. A mechanism is needed to detect and deflect intruders to safeguard resource constraint edge devices and networks as well. In this paper we demonstrate the use of an optimized pattern recognition algorithm to detect such attacks. Furthermore, we propose an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) methodology and design architecture for Internet of Things that makes the use of this search algorithm to thwart various security breaches. Numerical results are presented from tests conducted with the aid of NSL KDD cup dataset showing the efficacy the IDS
