Deep Learning-Based Dynamic Watermarking for Secure Signal Authentication in the Internet of Things
Securing the Internet of Things (IoT) is a necessary milestone toward
expediting the deployment of its applications and services. In particular, the
functionality of the IoT devices is extremely dependent on the reliability of
their message transmission. Cyber attacks such as data injection,
eavesdropping, and man-in-the-middle threats can lead to security challenges.
Securing IoT devices against such attacks requires accounting for their
stringent computational power and need for low-latency operations. In this
paper, a novel deep learning method is proposed for dynamic watermarking of IoT
signals to detect cyber attacks. The proposed learning framework, based on a
long short-term memory (LSTM) structure, enables the IoT devices to extract a
set of stochastic features from their generated signal and dynamically
watermark these features into the signal. This method enables the IoT's cloud
center, which collects signals from the IoT devices, to effectively
authenticate the reliability of the signals. Furthermore, the proposed method
prevents complicated attack scenarios such as eavesdropping in which the cyber
attacker collects the data from the IoT devices and aims to break the
watermarking algorithm. Simulation results show that, with an attack detection
delay of under 1 second the messages can be transmitted from IoT devices with
an almost 100% reliability.Comment: 6 pages, 9 figure
Performance analysis with network-enhanced complexities: On fading measurements, event-triggered mechanisms, and cyber attacks
Copyright © 2014 Derui Ding et al.

For networked systems, especially large-scale systems such as multiagent systems and systems over sensor networks, the complexities are inevitably enhanced in terms of their degrees or intensities because of the usage of the communication networks. Therefore, it would be interesting to (1) examine how this kind of network-enhanced complexities affects the control or filtering performance; and (2) develop some suitable approaches for controller/filter design problems. In this paper, we aim to survey some recent advances on the performance analysis and synthesis with three sorts of fashionable network-enhanced complexities, namely, fading measurements, event-triggered mechanisms, and attack behaviors of adversaries. First, these three kinds of complexities are introduced in detail according to their engineering backgrounds, dynamical characteristic, and modelling techniques. Then, the developments of the performance analysis and synthesis issues for various networked systems are systematically reviewed. Furthermore, some challenges are illustrated by using a thorough literature review and some possible future research directions are highlighted.This work was supported in part by the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grants 61134009, 61329301, 61203139, 61374127, and 61374010, the Royal Society of the UK, and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany
