Abstract:The explosive growth of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has exposed networks to new security threats. IoTFinder, a DNS-based machine learning approach for identifying IoT devices, avoids the limitations of other approaches. This study aims to reimplement and evaluate IoTFinder using Python, with a particular focus on the impact of environmental factors on its performance. Specifically, we assess IoTFinder’s accuracy across three real-world environments: (1) mixed traffic scenarios, (2) static and dynamic network conditions, and (3) cross-country datasets from the US and the UK, evaluating its geographical generalizability. By assessing its performance across different environments, the research provides insight into the practical application of IoTFinder in the real world, demonstrating its potential as a tool for timely monitoring and mitigating IoT-related anomalies and security threats.
