Abstract	The Internet of things (IoT) is being used in a variety of industries, including agriculture, the military, smart cities and smart grids, and personalized health care. It is also being used to control critical infrastructure. Nevertheless, because the IoT lacks security procedures and lack the processing power to execute computationally costly antimalware apps, they are susceptible to malware attacks. In addition, the conventional method by which malware-detection mechanisms identify a threat is through known malware fingerprints stored in their database. However, with the ever-evolving and drastic increase in malware threats in the IoT, it is not enough to have traditional antimalware software in place, which solely defends against known threats. Consequently, in this paper, a lightweight deep learning model for an SDN-enabled IoT framework that leverages the underlying IoT resource-constrained devices by provisioning computing resources to deploy instant protection against botnet malware attacks is proposed. The proposed model can achieve 99% precision, recall, and F1 score and 99.4% accuracy. The execution time of the model is 0.108 milliseconds with 118 KB size and 19,414 parameters. The proposed model can achieve performance with high accuracy while utilizing fewer computational resources and addressing resource-limitation issues. © 2023 by the authors.
