Federated Deep Learning for Cyber Security in the Internet of Things: Concepts, Applications, and Experimental Analysis
Open accessAbstract
In this article, we present a comprehensive study with an experimental analysis of federated deep learning approaches for cyber security in the Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Specifically, we first provide a review of the federated learning-based security and privacy systems for several types of IoT applications, including, Industrial IoT, Edge Computing, Internet of Drones, Internet of Healthcare Things, Internet of Vehicles, etc. Second, the use of federated learning with blockchain and malware/intrusion detection systems for IoT applications is discussed. Then, we review the vulnerabilities in federated learning-based security and privacy systems. Finally, we provide an experimental analysis of federated deep learning with three deep learning approaches, namely, Recurrent Neural Network (RNN), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), and Deep Neural Network (DNN). For each deep learning model, we study the performance of centralized and federated learning under three new real IoT traffic datasets, namely, the Bot-IoT dataset, the MQTTset dataset, and the TON_IoT dataset. The goal of this article is to provide important information on federated deep learning approaches with emerging technologies for cyber security. In addition, it demonstrates that federated deep learning approaches outperform the classic/centralized versions of machine learning (non-federated learning) in assuring the privacy of IoT device data and provide the higher accuracy in detecting attacks.
Overview

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
This paper surveys federated deep learning for IoT cyber security and adds an experimental comparison of centralized vs. federated DNN, CNN, and RNN intrusion detection models on three IoT traffic datasets. It concludes that federated learning improves privacy and can approach or outperform centralized learning, though its own reported centralized accuracies are often higher than the federated global-model results.
Key findings
- The review covers federated learning-based security and privacy systems across Industrial IoT, edge computing, Internet of Drones, Internet of Healthcare Things, Internet of Vehicles, cloud computing, 5G-enabled IoT, mobile crowdsensing, and cyber-physical systems; it also discusses federated learning with blockchain and federated intrusion/malware detection.
- In centralized experiments, the highest accuracies were RNN on Bot-IoT at 96.76%, DNN on MQTTset at 90.06%, and RNN on TON_IoT at 99.98%; the lowest were DNN on Bot-IoT at 95.76%, RNN on MQTTset at 89.29%, and CNN on TON_IoT at 98.87%.
- In federated experiments, IID global models approximated centralized performance; Non-IID models struggled initially but after 50 rounds approached centralized performance. For Bot-IoT with CNN and K=15, the worst client had 01.00% accuracy at the first round, 52.98% at round 50, while the global model achieved 90.35%.
- The paper states that federated deep learning approaches outperform classic/centralized machine learning in assuring IoT data privacy and provide higher accuracy in detecting attacks, although the experimental comparison text reports that federated global models “managed to approach” centralized performance.
Methods
- Design: comprehensive survey plus experimental analysis training three deep learning IDS models—DNN, CNN, and RNN—under centralized and federated learning settings.
- Data: three real IoT traffic datasets—Bot-IoT (69.3 GB PCAP, over 72 million records; CSV files used), MQTTset, and TON_IoT—with preprocessing including dropping selected features, one-hot encoding of `proto`, and Z-score normalization.
- Federated setup and analysis: Sherpa.AI framework on Google Colaboratory with NumPy, Pandas, TensorFlow, and Keras; client distributions K=5, K=10, and K=15; IID and Non-IID data distributions; 50 federated rounds; metrics include accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and ROC curves.
Limitations
- Paper-stated open challenges include: privacy can still be revealed by analyzing the global model; differential privacy can degrade performance or require high computing power; IoT network constraints such as bandwidth, interference, noise, and limited reliability; data bias and unequal data sizes across devices; and lack of FL-specific IoT frameworks.
- Evident from the text: the experiments use pre-existing public datasets with engineered partitions to mimic federations because of a lack of FL-specific datasets; experiments were run on Google Colab; source code is available only upon request; and the conclusion that federated learning provides higher attack-detection accuracy is not fully supported by the paper’s own centralized-vs-federated accuracy results, which show federated global models approaching rather than consistently exceeding centralized models.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-09, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
