Abstract

En 中文
Internet of Things (IoT) security and reliability rely on the capacity to identify distributed denial -of -service (DDoS) assaults in IoT networks. This research presents a comprehensive study on DDoS attack detection using the NSL-KDD dataset. The dataset contains a diverse set of network traffic data. This paper proposes two approaches, one utilizing Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and another without PCA, to compare their performance. Robust scaling and encoding techniques are applied as preprocessing steps. The experiment outcomes demonstrate a noteworthy improvement in the accuracy of DDoS attack detection in IoT devices by integrating PCA and Robust Scaler. Notably, the Random Forest and KNN classifiers demonstrate exceptional performance with an accuracy of 99.87 % and 99.14 %, respectively, while Naive Bayes shows a lower accuracy of 87.14 %. The findings from this experiment contribute valuable insights into enhancing the security of IoT devices against DDoS attacks. The proposed approach showcases the importance of appropriate preprocessing techniques in achieving robust intrusion detection systems for IoT environments.
