IoT network, artificial intelligence, machine learning, information securityAbstract
The rapid development of IoT technologies and their integration into everyday life are leading to a significant increase in the amount of data collected, transmitted and processed. This creates significant risks of confidential information leakage, which can have serious consequences for individual users, businesses and government agencies. In addition, the growing number of connected devices and their interaction in global networks increase the vulnerability of systems to cyberattacks, which can lead to unauthorized access to critical data.
The purpose of this article is to analyze the vulnerabilities of the Internet of Things (IoT) and to consider modern methods of detecting and counteracting cyber threats in such networks. The main objectives of the study include: Identification of the main threats and vulnerabilities of IoT networks at different levels of interaction; Analysis of modern attack methods applied to IoT systems and their consequences; Overview and classification of security methods, including cryptographic mechanisms, blockchain solutions, artificial intelligence-based anomaly detection systems, etc; Comparison of the effectiveness of different approaches to cybersecurity of IoT infrastructure and identification of their advantages and disadvantages; Formulating recommendations for the implementation of more reliable mechanisms to protect IoT networks.
Based on the analysis, the article proposes promising approaches to improving the security of IoT infrastructure, which can be used to minimize risks and improve the protection of users' personal information. The results of the study can be useful both for scientists dealing with cybersecurity issues and for practitioners working in the field of development and implementation of IoT solutions
