Summary
This seminar delves into the critical domain of anomaly-based cyberattack detection in smart homes, a field of paramount importance amidst the proliferation of interconnected devices and escalating cybersecurity threats. The presentation will examine recent research focusing on the use of machine learning for identifying and mitigating cyberattacks within smart home environments. A systematic review of the literature will highlight prevalent trends, challenges, and future research avenues. A comparative analysis of publicly available smart home cybersecurity datasets will unveil their limitations and underscore the need for more representative datasets that accurately reflect real-world scenarios. Furthermore, the seminar will investigate the impact of evaluation metrics and hyperparameter optimization on the performance of both supervised and unsupervised anomaly detection models. The research findings emphasize the importance of addressing dataset limitations, employing suitable evaluation metrics, and optimizing model parameters to achieve robust and effective cyberattack detection in smart homes, ultimately safeguarding user privacy and security.
This seminar is held under the ARTEMISA International Chair of Cybersecurity and the DANGER Strategic Project of Cybersecurity, both funded by the Spanish National Institute of Cybersecurity through the European Union's NextGenerationEU programme and the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan.
