Abstract - Although the Internet of Things (IoT) has grown to be an essential component of contemporary infrastructure, it is nevertheless vulnerable to a wide range of security risks, the most disruptive of which are Denial of Service (DoS) assaults. Using a Python-based analytical stack that consists of Pandas, Seaborn, Matplotlib, Scikit-learn, XGBoost, LightGBM, AdaBoost, Gradient Boosting, Bagging Classifiers, and Keras, this study uses the BoTNeTIoT-L01 dataset to perform a comparative analysis of different machine learning (ML) classifiers. In order to provide a benchmark for IDS appropriate for the limited resources of IoT devices, we evaluate the classifiers' performance in terms of accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and computational efficiency. By weighing the trade-off between detection capabilities and system resource constraints, the study aims to provide guidance for the implementation of effective, real-time intrusion detection systems (IDS) in IoT networks.

Abstract - The rapid growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) has introduced significant security vulnerabilities, necessitating advanced methods for protecting IoT ecosystems. This thesis presents a novel approach to enhancing IoT security by integrating the Zero Trust model with machine learning techniques. Specifically, a CNN-BiLSTM-based Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is proposed to detect and mitigate various cyber threats, including Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS), spoofing, and Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks, within a Zero Trust framework. The CICIDS2017 dataset was employed for model training and evaluation, ensuring comprehensive coverage of IoT-related attack vectors. A comparative analysis was conducted using three machine learning models—CNN-BiLSTM, Support Vector Machines (SVM), and Linear Regression—evaluating their performance based on accuracy, loss, and the computed trust values of IoT devices. The CNN-BiLSTM model outperformed the other models, achieving 100% test accuracy and generating the highest trust scores for IoT devices. These trust values were dynamically computed as part of the Zero Trust policy enforcement, ensuring that only authenticated and verified devices could access the system. This research also introduces a feedback loop, where continuous monitoring of device behavior and machine learning predictions feed back into the system to adjust policies dynamically, further strengthening the security posture. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of combining Zero Trust principles with machine learning for robust, real-time IoT security, offering an innovative solution for mitigating advanced cyber threats.

Abstract - Globalization, or internally connected, intelligent physical networks, is a feature of advanced Internet of Things (IoT) technology. The Internet of Things (IoT) is a promising technology that is being used in a variety of applications, including catastrophe risk management. The Internet of Things (IoT) plays a critical and omnipresent role in disaster management, and it has the potential to save lives. The role of IoT in catastrophe risk management is discussed in this article. It compares IoT-based disaster risk management to other solutions on the market to expose IoT-based disaster risk management for various sorts of calamities. It depicts the implementation of several examples of IoT as an early warning system for fire and earthquakes, as well as alternate approaches to application, IoT design, and disaster research. This study could serve as a useful reference for anyone interested in using IoT technology to protect smart city infrastructure and manage disaster risk reduction.
