Abstract

Now a day, Internet of Things (IoT) has touched almost every corner of human and unimaginably affect our life by its applications. Resources and environment are being more susceptible to security threats like Virus, DoS/DDoS, Ransomware, Spyware, IP Spoofing, etc. To consider security services and IoT devices capabilities, low power and processing constraints, response rate, this paper has proposed a Decision Tree-Based IDS for IoT environment to prevent intra and inter network from DoS/DDoS attacks. In this paper, the analysis is done in two ways- (a) Power consumption and (b) Attack Detection. The experiments are conducted in the Cooja simulator pre-installed in Contiki operating system within the virtual machine. From attack detection mode it is concluded that C5 Decision Tree-Based IDS model shows high accuracy with low false alarm rate (FAR). Whereas, from power consumption mode it is observed that the simulated network suffers from high-power consumption and around three times more CPU power and two-time Listening Power consumption during attack as compare to their normal behavior.
