Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is rapidly reshaping smart homes with innovative technologies for everyday convenience. Although smart home technologies are becoming more popular, many homeowners lack the expertise and skills to operate them. Particularly mismanaged networking technologies often result in homeowners complaining to their Broadband Service Providers (BSPs) when there are disruptions to the performance of the smart home devices and services. Current remote management solutions used by BSPs offer limited functionality and accuracy in identifying the causes of these disruptions. Causes may include legitimate factors, such as misconfiguration, interference, and congestion, but they could also be the result of cyber attacks. This review exposes knowledge gaps that impede the development of effective troubleshooting tools (particularly related to cyber attacks) for BSPs, including network-related challenges and dataset limitations. We also discuss future research directions, emphasising scalable and data-efficient methods to reduce storage requirements, costs, and privacy concerns, which will enable BSPs to manage millions of customer networks more effectively.

现有智能家居网络攻击检测方案的有效性调查：宽带服务提供商的视角

物联网（IoT）正在通过创新技术迅速重塑智能家居，为日常生活提供便利。尽管智能家居技术正变得越来越流行，但许多房主缺乏操作它们的专业知识和技能。特别是管理不善的网络技术，经常导致房主向他们的宽带服务提供商（bsp）投诉，当智能家居设备和服务的性能受到干扰时。bsp使用的当前远程管理解决方案在识别这些中断的原因方面提供有限的功能和准确性。原因可能包括合理的因素，如配置错误、干扰和拥塞，但它们也可能是网络攻击的结果。本综述揭示了阻碍bsp开发有效故障排除工具（特别是与网络攻击相关的工具）的知识差距，包括与网络相关的挑战和数据集限制。我们还讨论了未来的研究方向，强调可扩展和数据高效的方法，以减少存储需求、成本和隐私问题，这将使bsp能够更有效地管理数百万客户网络。

期刊介绍： The IEEE Open Journal of the Communications Society (OJ-COMS) is an open access, all-electronic journal that publishes original high-quality manuscripts on advances in the state of the art of telecommunications systems and networks. The papers in IEEE OJ-COMS are included in Scopus. Submissions reporting new theoretical findings (including novel methods, concepts, and studies) and practical contributions (including experiments and development of prototypes) are welcome. Additionally, survey and tutorial articles are considered. The IEEE OJCOMS received its debut impact factor of 7.9 according to the Journal Citation Reports (JCR) 2023. The IEEE Open Journal of the Communications Society covers science, technology, applications and standards for information organization, collection and transfer using electronic, optical and wireless channels and networks. Some specific areas covered include: Systems and network architecture, control and management Protocols, software, and middleware Quality of service, reliability, and security Modulation, detection, coding, and signaling Switching and routing Mobile and portable communications Terminals and other end-user devices Networks for content distribution and distributed computing Communications-based distributed resources control.
