Abstract
The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the fastest-growing computing
industries. By the end of 2027, more than 29 billion devices are expected to be
connected. These smart devices can communicate with each other with and without
human intervention. This rapid growth has led to the emergence of new types of
malware. However, traditional malware detection methods, such as
signature-based and heuristic-based techniques, are becoming increasingly
ineffective against these new types of malware. Therefore, it has become
indispensable to find practical solutions for detecting IoT malware. Machine
Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) approaches have proven effective in
dealing with these new IoT malware variants, exhibiting high detection rates.
In this paper, we bridge the gap in research between the IoT malware analysis
and the wide adoption of deep learning in tackling the problems in this domain.
As such, we provide a comprehensive review on deep learning based malware
analysis across various categories of the IoT domain (i.e. Extended Internet of
Things (XIoT)), including Industrial IoT (IIoT), Internet of Medical Things
(IoMT), Internet of Vehicles (IoV), and Internet of Battlefield Things (IoBT).
