| Abstract | Consumer electronics (CE) and the Internet of Things (IoTs) are transforming daily routines by integrating smart technology into household gadgets. IoT allows devices to link and communicate from the Internet with better functions, remote control, and automation of various complex systems simulation platforms. The quick progress in IoT technology has continuously driven the progress of further connected and intelligent CEs, shaping more smart cities and homes. Blockchain (BC) technology is emerging as a promising technology offering immutable distributed ledgers that improve the security and integrity of data. However, even with BC resilience, the IoT ecosystem remains vulnerable to Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks. In contrast, the malicious actor overwhelms the network with traffic, disrupting services and compromising device functionality. Incorporating BC with IoT infrastructure presents groundbreaking techniques to alleviate these threats. IoT networks can better detect and respond to DDoS attacks in real time by leveraging BC cryptographic techniques and decentralized consensus mechanisms, which safeguard against disruptions and enhance resilience. There must be a reliable mechanism of recognition based on adequate techniques to detect and identify whether these attacks have happened or not in the system. Artificial intelligence (A) is the most common technique that uses machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) to recognize cyber threats. This research presents a new Blockchain with Ensemble Deep Learning-based Distributed DoS Attack Detection (BCEDL-DDoSD) approach in the IoT platform. The primary intention of the BCEDL-DDoSD approach is to leverage BC with a DL-based attack recognition process in the IoT platform. BC technology is utilized to enable a secure data transmission process. In the BCEDL-DDoSD approach, Z-score normalization is initially employed to measure the input data. Besides, the selection of features takes place using the Fractal Wombat optimization algorithm (WOA). For attack recognition, the BCDL-DDoSD technique applies an ensemble of three models, namely denoising autoencoder (DAE), gated recurrent unit (GRU), and long short-term memory (LSTM). Lastly, an orca predator algorithm (OPA)-based hyperparameter tuning procedure has been implemented to select the parameter value of DL models. A sequence of simulations is made on the benchmark database to authorize the performance of the BCDL-DDoSD approach. The simulation results showed that the BCDL-DDoSD approach performs better than other DL techniques. © 2024 The Author(s). |
