Abstract:
In the evolving landscape of Internet of Things (IoT) and Industrial IoT (IIoT) security,
novel and efficient intrusion detection systems (IDSs) are paramount. In this article, we present
a groundbreaking approach to intrusion detection for IoT-based electric vehicle charging stations
(EVCS), integrating the robust capabilities of convolutional neural network (CNN), long short-term
memory (LSTM), and gated recurrent unit (GRU) models. The proposed framework leverages a
comprehensive real-world cybersecurity dataset, specifically tailored for IoT and IIoT applications, to
address the intricate challenges faced by IoT-based EVCS. We conducted extensive testing in both
binary and multiclass scenarios. The results are remarkable, demonstrating a perfect 100% accuracy
in binary classification, an impressive 97.44% accuracy in six-class classification, and 96.90% accuracy
in fifteen-class classification, setting new benchmarks in the field. These achievements underscore
the efficacy of the CNN-LSTM-GRU ensemble architecture in creating a resilient and adaptive IDS for
IoT infrastructures. The ensemble algorithm, accessible via GitHub, represents a significant stride in
fortifying IoT-based EVCS against a diverse array of cybersecurity threats.
