Abstract—In the future, things in the Internet of Things should be able to provide solutions for any task that we ask them to perform. Imagine that we would have hundreds of billions of devices connected to the Internet, each of these devices possibly has hundreds of gigabytes of storage and memory, a magnitude of giga instructions per second, and...

... will be so extensible that everything will be monitored and tracked to provide a new kind of knowledge and awareness. To reach this goal, services that can indiscriminately share both the networks physical and virtual resources will be important in order to effectively perform at this unprecedented level of distributed computing as shown in Fig. ...

Abstract—The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the largest technological evolutions of computing; by 2022 it is estimated that a trillion IP addresses (objects) will be connected to the Internet. The obscurity and low accessibility of many of these devices in this vast heterogeneous network will make it difficult to holistically monitor information flow. Nonetheless, to safeguard networks, unauthorized intruders must be detected within the constraints of each type of device or sub-network before any system information can be disseminated. In this paper, a survey of the Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) using the most recent ideas and methods proposed for the IoT is presented. To understand and illustrate IDS platform differences and the current research trend towards a universal, cross-platform distributed approach, the survey starts with an historical examination of intrusion detection systems. This examination of the foundations of IDS research based on the components that make up the IoT is followed by a look at the current holistic trend and an analysis of these schemes. Finally, guidelines to potential IDS in the IoT are proposed before identifying the open research problems.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a heterogeneous network of objects that communicate with each other and their owners over the Internet. In the future, the utilization of distributed technologies in combination with their object applications will result in an unprecedented level of knowledge and awareness, creating new business opportunities and expanding existing ones. However, in this paradigm where almost everything can be monitored and tracked, an awareness of the state of the monitoring systems' situation will be important. Given the anticipated scale of business opportunities resulting from new object monitoring and tracking capabilities, IoT adoption has not been as fast as expected. The reason for the slow growth of application objects is the immaturity of the standards, which can be partly attributed to their unique system requirements and characteristics. In particular, the IoT standards must exhibit efficient self-reliant management and monitoring capability, which in a hierarchical topology is the role of cluster heads. IoT standards must be robust, scalable, adaptable, reliable, and trustworthy. These criteria are predicated upon the limited lifetime, and the autonomous nature, of wireless personal area networks (WPANs), of which wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are a major technological solution and research area in the IoT. In this paper, the energy efficiency of a self-reliant management and monitoring WSN cluster head selection algorithm, previously used for situation awareness, was improved upon by sharing particular established application cluster heads. This enhancement saved energy and reporting time by reducing the path length to the monitoring node. Also, a proposal to enhance the risk assessment component of the model is made. We demonstrate through experiments that when benchmarked against both a power and randomized cluster head deployment, the proposed enhancement to the situation awareness metric used less power. Potentially, this approach can be used to design a more energy efficient cluster-based management and monitoring algorithm for the advancement of security, e.g. Intrusion detection systems (IDSs), and other standards in the IoT.
