In the past few years, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) have demonstrated promising performance in various real-world cybersecurity applications, such as network and multimedia security. However, the underlying fragility of CNN structures poses major security problems, making them inappropriate for use in security-oriented applications, including computer networks. Protecting these architectures from adversarial attacks necessitates using security-wise architectures that are challenging to attack. In this study, we present a novel architecture based on an ensemble classifier that combines the enhanced security of 1-Class classification (known as 1C) with the high performance of conventional 2-Class classification (known as 2C) in the absence of attacks. Our architecture is referred to as the 1.5-Class (cmb-classifier) classifier and is constructed using a final dense classifier, one 2C classifier (i.e., CNNs), and two parallel 1C classifiers (i.e., auto-encoders). In our experiments, we evaluated the robustness of our proposed architecture by considering eight possible adversarial attacks in various scenarios. We performed these attacks on the 2C and cmb-classifier architectures separately. The experimental results of our study showed that the Attack Success Rate (ASR) of the I-FGSM attack against a 2C classifier trained with the N-BaIoT dataset is 0.9900. In contrast, the ASR is 0.0000 for the cmb-classifier.
