Abstract

The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem has increased its susceptibility to cyberattacks, creating a critical need for reliable Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS). However, IDS performance is often hindered by severe class imbalance, high-dimensional features, and similarities among attack behaviors. This study proposes an optimized XGBoost model enhanced with the Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE) and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to address these challenges. A systematic grid-search procedure was employed to ensure transparency, reproducibility, and optimal hyperparameter selection. The original imbalance ratio of approximately 1:27 was successfully normalized to nearly 1:1 through SMOTE. The Gotham dataset used in this study consists of roughly 350,000 IoT traffic records across eight attack categories. Five data-splitting scenarios (50:50 to 90:10) were evaluated using stratified hold-out validation supported by k-fold cross-validation. The optimized model achieved 99.68% accuracy, while extremely high AUC values approaching 1.0 were carefully validated to eliminate potential data leakage. Naive Bayes, Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machine, and Deep Neural Network were included as baseline comparisons. The results demonstrate that combining SMOTE and PCA significantly improves model stability and generalization on imbalanced IoT traffic, confirming the effectiveness of the proposed XGBSP method.
