Abstract
This study investigates the application of machine learning techniques for cyberattack prevention in Internet of Things (IoT) systems, focusing on the specific context of cyberattacks in Colombia. The research presents a comparative perspective on cyberattacks in Colombia, aiming to identify the most effective machine learning methods for mitigating and preventing such threats. The study evaluates the performance of logistic regression, naïve Bayes, perceptron, and k-nearest neighbors algorithms in the context of cyberattack prevention. Results reveal the strengths and weaknesses of these techniques in addressing the unique challenges posed by cyberattackers in Colombia’s IoT infrastructure. The findings provide valuable insights for enhancing cybersecurity measures in the region and contribute to the broader field of IoT security.
