Intrusion Detection in the Internet of Things : From Sniffing to a Border Router’s Point of View

Abstract: The Internet of Things is expanding, and with the increasing numbers of connected devices,exploitation of those devices also becomes more common. Since IoT devices and IoT networksare used in many crucial areas in modern societies, ranging from everything between securityand militrary applications to healthcare monitoring and production efficiency, the need to securethese devices is of great importance for researchers and businesses. This project explores howan intrusion detection system called DETONAR can be used on border router logs, instead of itsoriginal use of sniffer devices. Using DETONAR in this way allows us to detect many differentattacks, without contributing to the additional cost of deploying sniffer devices and the additionalrisk of the sniffer devices themselves becoming the target of attack
