Abstract

While Internet of Things (IoT) services are becoming pervasive, the cyber-attacks against IoT devices are in a sharp rise as well. Tailored for IoT devices, a low-cost, universal and real-time malware detection system is proposed that audits the side-channel power consumption data and extracts the distinguishable power features to detect malicious behaviors. In this paper, a new design of smart plug which is a core component of the system is designed, developed and prototyped to enable real-time power data collection, preprocessing and streaming for IoT malware detection on the fly. Our results demonstrate the promising performance of the smart plug in achieving real-time power auditing and high accuracy malware detection.
