摘要

The emergence of the IoT has initiated a period of interconnected devices, revolutionizing various industries. However, this rapid increase has also introduced significant security vulnerabilities, making IoT networks primary targets for malware attacks. This study highlights the uses of machine learning(ML) techniques to enhance malware detection in IoT networks. Employing traditional machine learning algorithms (e.g., Random Forest, Support Vector Machine, and K-Nearest Neighbour) alongside boosting algorithms, such as XGBoost, the study demonstrates the efficacy of these models in accurately identifying and classifying malware samples. The results underscore the potential of ML to fortify cybersecurity in IoT environments, showcasing its high accuracy and efficiency in malware detection. This research contributes to the growing body of study in IoT security by presenting a comprehensive methodology for malware detection that leverages advanced ML techniques.
