abstract = "Recent hardware developments have made it possible for
the Internet of Things (IoT) to be built. A wide
variety of industry sectors, including manufacturing,
utilities, agriculture, transportation, and healthcare
are actively seeking to incorporate IoT technologies in
their operations. The increased connectivity and data
sharing that give IoT systems their advantages also
increase their vulnerability to attack. In this study,
the authors explore the automated generation of attacks
using genetic programming (GP), so that defences can be
tested objectively in advance of deployment. In the
authors' system, the GP-generated attackers targeted
publish-subscribe communications within a wireless
sensor networks that was protected by an artificial
immune intrusion detection system (IDS) taken from the
literature. The GP attackers successfully suppressed
more legitimate messages than the hand-coded attack
used originally to test the IDS, whilst reducing the
likelihood of detection. Based on the results, it was
possible to reconfigure the IDS to improve its
performance. Whilst the experiments were focussed on
establishing a proof-of-principle rather than a turnkey
solution, they indicate that GP-generated attackers
have the potential to improve the protection of systems
with large attack surfaces, in a way that is
complementary to traditional testing and
certification.",
