Proposed Model

Internet of things (IoT) is an emerging concept which aims to connect billions of devices with each other anytime regardless of their location. Sadly, these IoT devices do not have enough computing resources to process huge amount of data. Therefore, Cloud computing is relied on to provide these resources. However, cloud computing based architecture fails in applications that demand very low and predictable latency, therefore the need for fog computing which is a new paradigm that is regarded as an extension of cloud computing to provide services between end users and the cloud user. Unfortunately, Fog-IoT is confronted with various security and privacy risks and prone to several cyberattacks which is a serious challenge. The purpose of this work is to present security and privacy threats towards Fog-IoT platform and discuss the security and privacy requirements in fog computing. We then proceed to propose an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) model using Standard Deep Neural Network's Back Propagation algorithm (BPDNN) to mitigate intrusions that attack Fog-IoT platform. The experimental Dataset for the proposed model is obtained from the Canadian Institute for Cybersecurity 2017 Dataset. Each instance of the attack in the dataset is separated into separate files, which are DoS (Denial of Service), DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service), Web Attack, Brute Force FTP, Brute Force SSH, Heartbleed, Infiltration and Botnet (Bot Network) Attack. The proposed model is trained using a 3-layer BP-DNN

Structured Literature Review

The rapid growth of small Internet connected devices, known as the Internet of Things (IoT), is creating a new set of challenges to create secure, private infrastructures. This paper reviews the current literature on the challenges and approaches to security and privacy in the Internet of Things, with a strong focus on how these aspects are handled in IoT middleware. We focus on IoT middleware because many systems are built from existing middleware and these inherit the underlying security properties of the middleware framework. The paper is composed of three main sections. Firstly, we propose a matrix of security and privacy threats for IoT. This matrix is used as the basis of a widespread literature review aimed at identifying requirements on IoT platforms and middleware. Secondly, we present a structured literature review of the available middleware and how security is handled in these middleware approaches. We utilise the requirements from the first phase to evaluate. Finally, we draw a set of conclusions and identify further work in this area.

Privacy Issues

Internet of things (IoT) has given a promising chance to construct amazing industrial frameworks and applications by utilizing wireless and sensor devices. To support IIoT benefits efficiently, fog computing is typically considered as one of the potential solutions. Be that as it may, IIoT services still experience issues such as high-latency and unreliable connections between cloud and terminals of IIoT. In addition to this, numerous security and privacy issues are raised and affect the users of the distributed computing environment. With an end goal to understand the improvement of IoT in industries, this chapter presents the current research of IoT along with the key enabling technologies. Further, the architecture and features of fog computing towards the fog-assisted IoT applications are presented. In addition to this, security and protection threats along with safety measures towards the IIoT applications are discussed.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is evolving our society; however, the growing adoption of IoT devices in many scenarios brings security and privacy implications. Current security solutions are either unsuitable for every IoT scenario or provide only partial security. This paper presents AntibIoTic 2.0, a distributed security system that relies on Fog computing to secure IoT devices, including legacy ones. The system is composed of a backbone, made of core Fog nodes and Cloud server, a Fog node acting at the edge as the gateway of the IoT network, and a lightweight agent running on each IoT device. The proposed system offers fine-grained, host-level security coupled with network-level protection, while its distributed nature makes it scalable, versatile, lightweight, and easy to deploy, also for legacy IoT deployments. AntibIoTic 2.0 can also publish anonymized and aggregated data and statistics on the deployments it secures, to increase awareness and push cooperations in the area of IoT security. This manuscript recaps and largely expands previous works on AntibIoTic, providing an enhanced design of the system, an extended proof-of-concept that proves its feasibility and shows its operation, and an experimental evaluation that reports the low computational overhead it causes.
