Characterizing and classifying IoT traffic in smart cities and campuses

Campuses and cities of the near future will be equipped with vast numbers of IoT devices. Operators of such environments may not even be fully aware of their IoT assets, let alone whether each IoT device is functioning properly safe from cyber-attacks. This paper proposes the use of network traffic analytics to characterize IoT devices, including their typical behaviour mode. We first collect and synthesize traffic traces from a smart-campus...
