Data sharing with additional devices across wireless networks is made simple and advantageous by the Internet of Things (IoT), an emerging technology. However, IoT systems are more susceptible to cyberattacks because of their continued growth and technological advances, which could lead to powerful assaults. An intrusion detection system is one of the key defense mechanisms for information and communications technology. The primary shortcomings that plague current IoT security frameworks are their inability to detect intrusions properly, their substantial latency, and their prolonged processing time and delay. Therefore, this work develops a clever and innovative security architecture called Vectorization-Based Boost Quantized Network (VBQ-Net) for protecting IoT networks. Here, a Vector Space Bag of Words (VSBW) methodology is used to reduce the dimensionality of features and identify a key characteristic from the featured data. In addition, a brand-new classification technique, called Boosted Variance Quantization Neural Networks (BVQNNs), is used to classify the different types of intrusions using a weighted feature matrix. A Multi-Hunting Reptile Search Optimization (MH-RSO) algorithm is employed during categorization to calculate the probability value for selecting the right choices while anticipating intrusions. In this study, the most well-known and current datasets, such as IoTID-20, IoT-23, and CIDDS-001, are used to validate and evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology. By evaluating the proposed approach on standard IoT datasets, the study seeks to address the limitations of current IoT security frameworks and provide a more effective defense mechanism against cyberattacks on IoT systems.

Diabetes is a widely spread disease that significantly affects people’s lives. The leading cause is uncontrolled levels of blood glucose, which develop eye defects over time, including Diabetic Retinopathy (DR), which results in severe visual loss. The primary factor causing blindness is considered to be DR in diabetic patients. DR treatment tries to control the disease’s severity, as it is irreversible. The primary goal of this effort is to create a reliable method for automatically detecting the severity of DR. This paper proposes a new automated system (DR-NASNet) to detect and classify DR severity using an improved pretrained NASNet Model. To develop the DR-NASNet system, we first utilized a preprocessing technique that takes advantage of Ben Graham and CLAHE to lessen noise, emphasize lesions, and ultimately improve DR classification performance. Taking into account the imbalance between classes in the dataset, data augmentation procedures were conducted to control overfitting. Next, we have integrated dense blocks into the NASNet architecture to improve the effectiveness of classification results for five severity levels of DR. In practice, the DR-NASNet model achieves state-of-the-art results with a smaller model size and lower complexity. To test the performance of the DR-NASNet system, a combination of various datasets is used in this paper. To learn effective features from DR images, we used a pretrained model on the dataset. The last step is to put the image into one of five categories: No DR, Mild, Moderate, Proliferate, or Severe. To carry this out, the classifier layer of a linear SVM with a linear activation function must be added. The DR-NASNet system was tested using six different experiments. The system achieves 96.05% accuracy with the challenging DR dataset. The results and comparisons demonstrate that the DR-NASNet system improves a model’s performance and learning ability. As a result, the DR-NASNet system provides assistance to ophthalmologists by describing an effective system for classifying early-stage levels of DR.

Cloud organizations now face a challenge in managing the enormous volume of data and various resources in the cloud due to the rapid growth of the virtualized environment with many service users, ranging from small business owners to large corporations. The performance of cloud computing may suffer from ineffective resource management. As a result, resources must be distributed fairly among various stakeholders without sacrificing the organization’s profitability or the satisfaction of its customers. A customer’s request cannot be put on hold indefinitely just because the necessary resources are not available on the board. Therefore, a novel cloud resource allocation model incorporating security management is developed in this paper. Here, the Deep Linear Transition Network (DLTN) mechanism is developed for effectively allocating resources to cloud systems. Then, an Adaptive Mongoose Optimization Algorithm (AMOA) is deployed to compute the beamforming solution for reward prediction, which supports the process of resource allocation. Moreover, the Logic Overhead Security Protocol (LOSP) is implemented to ensure secured resource management in the cloud system, where Burrows–Abadi–Needham (BAN) logic is used to predict the agreement logic. During the results analysis, the performance of the proposed DLTN-LOSP model is validated and compared using different metrics such as makespan, processing time, and utilization rate. For system validation and testing, 100 to 500 resources are used in this study, and the results achieved a make-up of 2.3% and a utilization rate of 13 percent. Moreover, the obtained results confirm the superiority of the proposed framework, with better performance outcomes.
