- Description: Internet of Things (IoT) image sensors, social media, and smartphones generate huge volumes of digital images every day. Easy availability and usability of photo editing tools have made forgery attacks, primarily splicing and copy-move attacks, effortless, causing cybercrimes to be on the rise. While several models have been proposed in the literature for detecting these attacks, the robustness of those models has not been investigated when (i) a low number of tampered images are available for model building or (ii) images from IoT sensors are distorted due to image rotation or scaling caused by unwanted or unexpected changes in sensors' physical set-up. Moreover, further improvement in detection accuracy is needed for real-word security management systems. To address these limitations, in this paper, an innovative image forgery detection method has been proposed based on Discrete Cosine Transformation (DCT) and Local Binary Pattern (LBP) and a new feature extraction method using the mean operator. First, images are divided into non-overlapping fixed size blocks and 2D block DCT is applied to capture changes due to image forgery. Then LBP is applied to the magnitude of the DCT array to enhance forgery artifacts. Finally, the mean value of a particular cell across all LBP blocks is computed, which yields a fixed number of features and presents a more computationally efficient method. Using Support Vector Machine (SVM), the proposed method has been extensively tested on four well known publicly available gray scale and color image forgery datasets, and additionally on an IoT based image forgery dataset that we built. Experimental results reveal the superiority of our proposed method over recent state-of-the-art methods in terms of widely used performance metrics and computational time and demonstrate robustness against low availability of forged training samples.

- Description: The Internet of Things (IoT) has been rapidly evolving towards making a greater impact on everyday life to large industrial systems. Unfortunately, this has attracted the attention of cybercriminals who made IoT a target of malicious activities, opening the door to a possible attack to the end nodes. Due to the large number and diverse types of IoT devices, it is a challenging task to protect the IoT infrastructure using a traditional intrusion detection system. To protect IoT devices, a novel ensemble Hybrid Intrusion Detection System (HIDS) is proposed by combining a C5 classifier and One Class Support Vector Machine classifier. HIDS combines the advantages of Signature Intrusion Detection System (SIDS) and Anomaly-based Intrusion Detection System (AIDS). The aim of this framework is to detect both the well-known intrusions and zero-day attacks with high detection accuracy and low false-alarm rates. The proposed HIDS is evaluated using the Bot-IoT dataset, which includes legitimate IoT network traffic and several types of attacks. Experiments show that the proposed hybrid IDS provide higher detection rate and lower false positive rate compared to the SIDS and AIDS techniques. © 2019 by the authors.
