The proliferation of IoT devices which can be more easily compromised than desktop computers has led to an increase in the occurrence of IoT based botnet attacks. In order to mitigate this new threat there is a need to develop new methods for detecting attacks launched from compromised IoT devices and differentiate between hour and millisecond long IoTbased attacks. In this paper we propose and empirically evaluate a novel network based anomaly detection method which extracts behavior snapshots of the network and uses deep autoencoders to detect anomalous network traffic emanating from compromised IoT devices. To evaluate our method, we infected nine commercial IoT devices in our lab with two of the most widely known IoT based botnets, Mirai and BASHLITE. Our evaluation results demonstrated our proposed methods ability to accurately and instantly detect the attacks as they were being launched from the compromised IoT devices which were part of a botnet.

Android, being the most widespread mobile operating systems is increasingly becoming a target for malware. Malicious apps designed to turn mobile devices into bots that may form part of a larger botnet have become quite common, thus posing a serious
threat. This calls for more effective methods to detect botnets on the Android platform. Hence, in this paper, we present a deep learning approach for Android botnet detection based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). Our proposed botnet detection system is implemented as a CNN-based model that is trained on 342 static app features to distinguish between botnet apps and normal apps. The trained botnet detection model was evaluated on a set of 6,802 real applications containing 1,929 botnets from the publicly available ISCX botnet dataset. The results show that our CNN-based approach had the highest overall prediction accuracy compared to other popular machine learning classifiers. Furthermore, the performance results observed from our model were better than those reported in previous studies on machine learning based Android botnet detection.
Botnets are increasingly used by malicious actors, creating increasing threat to a large number of internet users. To address this growing danger, we propose to study methods to detect botnets, especially those that are hard to capture with the commo
nly used methods, such as the signature based ones and the existing anomaly-based ones. More specifically, we propose a novel machine learning based method, named Recurrent Variational Autoencoder (RVAE), for detecting botnets through sequential characteristics of network traffic flow data including attacks by botnets. We validate robustness of our method with the CTU-13 dataset, where we have chosen the testing dataset to have different types of botnets than those of training dataset. Tests show that RVAE is able to detect botnets with the same accuracy as the best known results published in literature. In addition, we propose an approach to assign anomaly score based on probability distributions, which allows us to detect botnets in streaming mode as the new networking statistics becomes available. This on-line detection capability would enable real-time detection of unknown botnets.
The growing use of IoT devices in organizations has increased the number of attack vectors available to attackers due to the less secure nature of the devices. The widely adopted bring your own device (BYOD) policy which allows an employee to bring a
ny IoT device into the workplace and attach it to an organizations network also increases the risk of attacks. In order to address this threat, organizations often implement security policies in which only the connection of white-listed IoT devices is permitted. To monitor adherence to such policies and protect their networks, organizations must be able to identify the IoT devices connected to their networks and, more specifically, to identify connected IoT devices that are not on the white-list (unknown devices). In this study, we applied deep learning on network traffic to automatically identify IoT devices connected to the network. In contrast to previous work, our approach does not require that complex feature engineering be applied on the network traffic, since we represent the communication behavior of IoT devices using small images built from the IoT devices network traffic payloads. In our experiments, we trained a multiclass classifier on a publicly available dataset, successfully identifying 10 different IoT devices and the traffic of smartphones and computers, with over 99% accuracy. We also trained multiclass classifiers to detect unauthorized IoT devices connected to the network, achieving over 99% overall average detection accuracy.
DDoS attacks are simple, effective, and still pose a significant threat even after more than two decades. Given the recent success in machine learning, it is interesting to investigate how we can leverage deep learning to filter out application layer
attack requests. There are challenges in adopting deep learning solutions due to the ever-changing profiles, the lack of labeled data, and constraints in the online setting. Offline unsupervised learning methods can sidestep these hurdles by learning an anomaly detector $N$ from the normal-day traffic ${mathcal N}$. However, anomaly detection does not exploit information acquired during attacks, and their performance typically is not satisfactory. In this paper, we propose two frameworks that utilize both the historic ${mathcal N}$ and the mixture ${mathcal M}$ traffic obtained during attacks, consisting of unlabeled requests. We also introduce a machine learning optimization problem that aims to sift out the attacks using ${mathcal N}$ and ${mathcal M}$. First, our proposed approach, inspired by statistical methods, extends an unsupervised anomaly detector $N$ to solve the problem using estimated conditional probability distributions. We adopt transfer learning to apply $N$ on ${mathcal N}$ and ${mathcal M}$ separately and efficiently, combining the results to obtain an online learner. Second, we formulate a specific loss function more suited for deep learning and use iterative training to solve it in the online setting. On publicly available datasets, our online learners achieve a $99.3%$ improvement on false-positive rates compared to the baseline detection methods. In the offline setting, our approaches are competitive with classifiers trained on labeled data.
Crossfire attack is a recently proposed threat designed to disconnect whole geographical areas, such as cities or states, from the Internet. Orchestrated in multiple phases, the attack uses a massively distributed botnet to generate low-rate benign t
raffic aiming to congest selected network links, so-called target links. The adoption of benign traffic, while simultaneously targeting multiple network links, makes the detection of the Crossfire attack a serious challenge. In this paper, we propose a framework for early detection of Crossfire attack, i.e., detection in the warm-up period of the attack. We propose to monitor traffic at the potential decoy servers and discuss the advantages comparing with other monitoring approaches. Since the low-rate attack traffic is very difficult to distinguish from the background traffic, we investigate several deep learning methods to mine the spatiotemporal features for attack detection. We investigate Autoencoder, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) Network to detect the Crossfire attack during its warm-up period. We report encouraging experiment results.
