We’re excited to announce that Dr. Faryaneh Poursardar, Research Assistant Professor, has been awarded a $100,000 Commonwealth Cyber Initiative (CCI) Grant to support the collaborative project, “Adaptive Intrusion Detection in IoT Networks Using LLM-Driven Behavioral Analysis and Deep Reinforcement Learning.” This is a collaborative work with Dr. Neda Moghim with the Center for Secure and Intelligent Critical Systems, and Virginia Tech.   The research project will explore the integration of Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL), Large Language Models (LLMs), neuro-symbolic AI, and wireless networking to create adaptive intrusion detection systems for Internet of Things (IoT) networks.   Read more here: https://lnkd.in/ew7BTbN6   #ODUVMASC #ODUInnovate #OERI #CyberSecurity #ioT

MIT signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on 05.12.2024 with the NIELIT. This partnership aims to promote skilling, research, and innovation in emerging fields like Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and Cybersecurity. With this initiative, students of MIT will be benefited from advanced learning in these technologies, aligned with the goals of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020.

I'm sure you've heard of IoT, the Internet of Things. A phrase coined almost 40 years ago to describe all of the interconnected devices that now pervade our lives. In this new paper on the Enterprise Architecture Professional Journal, students from the University of Melbourne discuss the IoMT; the Internet of Medical Things. A subset of the original concept, but increasing in volume and prevalence within out experiences as care-givers and patients. With this growing ubiquity, comes the usual concerns around #cybersecurity, which is the focus of this paper, and how an architectural approach might help to alleviate some of the associated risks. https://lnkd.in/gBz52ibE Our thanks as always to Rod Dilnutt for his work in guiding these students through their studies, and to Paul Sheldon for his review of the material. #entarch #IoT #healthcare

A new distributed federated intrusion detection method was proposed by a research team led by Wei WANG to address vulnerabilities in IoT network devices. The method utilizes labeled data as prior knowledge to identify new attack types, ensuring training security. A blockchain-based federated learning architecture is used for secure and distributed coordination. Experiments on the AWID dataset show promising results. Future work may focus on developing a more efficient consensus mechanism for real-time IoT requirements.

Intriguing, I look forward to tuning in. My perspective: I believe that AI offers remarkable benefits. AI-driven solutions can tackle complex challenges, making our world more efficient, interconnected, and responsive. Nevertheless, the rise of AI also brings significant concerns. Issues such as data privacy, job displacement, and the ethical implications of autonomous systems demand our attention. As AI systems become more integrated into our daily lives, ensuring transparency, accountability, and fairness is crucial. The balance, in my view, lies in the thoughtful and ethical integration of technology, ensuring that AI enhances human capabilities without compromising core values or societal well-being. This involves designing AI systems with fairness, transparency, and accountability in mind, prioritizing human needs, implementing robust regulatory frameworks, promoting digital literacy, and encouraging collaboration between technologists, policymakers, and society. By doing so, we can harness the benefits of AI while upholding the values and integrity of humanity.

🎉 I’m pleased to share that my thesis, " Securing the Future: addressing IoT Vulnerabilities in Healthcare through robust security strategies", has been published in The Scientific Heritage No 144. This work, which focuses on weaknesses related to interconnected devices in healthcare represents an important step in my academic journey and my contribution to the ongoing research in Information Security.
