Description
Summary:The rapid growth of IoT devices has heightened the risk of botnet attacks, calling for scalable and distributed detection solutions. In this context, this study proposes a distributed optimization system for IoT attack detection using CNN model utilizing federated learning. After optimizing the hyperparameters of the model at the server, the Siberian Tiger Optimization (STO) method distributes these values to clients for dispersed training. Our model achieves accuracy, recall, and precision of 0.89978, 0.94355, and 0.94455, respectively, using the N-BaIoT dataset. These findings show, in spite of latency issues, the efficiency of federated learning in distributed IoT security systems.
