With the growing integration of IoT devices in critical infrastructure, cybersecurity threats such as Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks on Energy Hubs (EH) have become a significant concern. This study aims to address these challenges by evaluating the effectiveness of various supervised machine learning (ML) algorithms in predicting DDoS attacks targeting EH systems through IoT devices. Using the CICDDOS2019 and KDD-CUP datasets, a comprehensive analysis was conducted on several classifiers, including Decision Tree (DT), Gradient Boosting, Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), and Random Forest. The results highlight Gradient Boosting as the most effective model, particularly for the CICDDOS2019 dataset, demonstrating superior accuracy and predictive capability. Additionally, hybrid models combining Gradient Boosting with SVM or DT showed strong performance, though with varying precision and recall. This study provides valuable insights into the selection and tailoring of ML models for specific security challenges, emphasizing the need for ongoing research to enhance the resilience of EH systems and IoT devices against evolving DDoS threats. |
