Privacy-Preserving Detection of Tampered Radio-Frequency Transmissions Utilizing Federated Learning in LoRa Networks.

LoRa networks, widely adopted for low-power, long-range communication in IoT applications, face critical security concerns as radio-frequency transmissions are increasingly vulnerable to tampering. This paper addresses the dual challenges of privacy-preserving detection of tampered transmissions and the identification of unknown attacks in LoRa-based IoT networks. Leveraging Federated Learning (FL), our approach enables the detection of tampered RF transmissions while safeguarding sensitive IoT data, as FL allows model training on distributed devices without sharing raw data.

Identifying Tampered Radio-Frequency Transmissions in LoRa Networks Using Machine Learning.

Long-range networks, renowned for their long-range, low-power communication capabilities, form the backbone of many Internet of Things systems, enabling efficient and reliable data transmission. However, detecting tampered frequency signals poses a considerable challenge due to the vulnerability of LoRa devices to radio-frequency interference and signal manipulation, which can undermine both data integrity and security. This paper presents an innovative method for identifying tampered radio frequency transmissions by employing five sophisticated anomaly detection algorithms-Local Outlier Factor, Isolation Forest, Variational Autoencoder, traditional Autoencoder, and Principal Component Analysis within the framework of a LoRa-based Internet of Things network structure.

Detection of Malicious Threats Exploiting Clock-Gating Hardware Using Machine Learning.

Embedded system technologies are increasingly being incorporated into manufacturing, smart grid, industrial control systems, and transportation systems. However, the vast majority of today's embedded platforms lack the support of built-in security features which makes such systems highly vulnerable to a wide range of cyber-attacks. Specifically, they are vulnerable to malware injection code that targets the power distribution system of an ARM Cortex-M-based microcontroller chipset (ARM, Cambridge, UK).

CANAttack: Assessing Vulnerabilities within Controller Area Network.

Current vehicles include electronic features that provide ease and convenience to drivers. These electronic features or nodes rely on in-vehicle communication protocols to ensure functionality. One of the most-widely adopted in-vehicle protocols on the market today is the Controller Area Network, popularly referred to as the CAN bus.
