abstract = "The Internet of Things (IoT) is revolutionising nearly
every aspect of modern life, playing an ever greater
role in both industrial and domestic sectors. The
increasing frequency of cyber-incidents is a
consequence of the pervasiveness of IoT. Threats are
becoming more sophisticated, with attackers using new
attacks or modifying existing ones. Security teams must
deal with a diverse and complex threat landscape that
is constantly evolving. Traditional security solutions
cannot protect such systems adequately and so
researchers have begun to use Machine Learning
algorithms to discover effective defense systems. we
investigate how one approach from the domain of
evolutionary computation, grammatical evolution, can be
used to identify cyberattacks in IoT environments. The
experiments were conducted on up-to-date datasets and
compared with state-of-the-art algorithms. The
potential application of evolutionary computation-based
approaches to detect unknown attacks is also examined
and discussed.",
