Abstract: Internet of things (IoT) networks dominate industries, homes, organisations, and other aspects of life owing to their automation capabilities. However, IoT networks are vulnerable to attacks, especially distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, as they tend to have low computational capabilities and are highly diverse. While current research shows the potential of utilising deep learning methods to detect DDoS attacks, there is a lack of a framework that can be used to deploy an effective deep learning algorithm to detect DDoS attacks in heterogeneous IoT environments. Accordingly, this paper developed a DDoS detection framework based on the CNN-BiLSTM model, which can be deployed in a distributed network and includes adequate pre-processing. Simulations were also done to demonstrate the application of the framework and its effectiveness.
