Collaborative adversary nodes learning on the logs of IoT devices in an IoT network

Published in 14th International Conference on COMmunication Systems & NETworkS (COMSNETS 2022), 2021

The network traffic of IoT devices can be analyzed using AI techniques. The Adversary Learning (AdLIoTLog) model is proposed using Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) with attention mechanism on sequences of network events in the network traffic.
