Sumario:Internet of Things (IoT) devices within smart cities, require innovative detection methods. This paper addresses this critical challenge by introducing a deep learning-based approach for the detection of network traffic attacks in IoT ecosystems. Leveraging the Kaggle dataset, our model integrates Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Gated Recurrent Units (GRUs) to capture both spatial and sequential features in network traffic data. We trained and evaluated our model over ten epochs, achieving an impressive overall accuracy rate of 99%. The classification report reveals the model’s proficiency in distinguishing various attack categories, including ‘Normal’, ‘DoS’ (Denial of Service), ‘Probe’, ‘U2R’ (User to Root), and ‘Sybil’. Additionally, the confusion matrix offers valuable insights into the model’s performance across these attack types. In terms of overall accuracy, our model achieves an impressive accuracy rate of 99% across all attack categories. The weighted- average F1-score is also 99%, showcasing the model’s robust performance in classifying network traffic attacks in IoT devices for smart cities. This advanced architecture exhibits the potential to fortify IoT device security in the complex landscape of smart cities, effectively contributing to the safeguarding of critical infrastructure
