Abstract— The increasing integration of IoT devices has heightened the vulnerability of networks to sophisticated and evolving cyber threats, particularly DDoS attacks, which can severely disrupt service availability. Leveraging machine learning algorithms, this research aims to enhance the proactive identification of anomalous patterns indicative of DDoS attacks within IoT environments. By employing a combination of feature extraction, classification, and ensemble learning methods, the proposed model demonstrates promising results in distinguishing between normal network behaviour and malicious activities associated with DDoS attacks. The study contributes to the advancement of security measures in IoT networks, offering a proactive and adaptive solution to mitigate the impact of DDoS attacks, ultimately bolstering the resilience of interconnected systems in the evolving landscape of cyber threats. This study presents a novel approach for the detection of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks in Internet of Things (IoT) networks using machine learning techniques.
