%X Maintaining security in communication networks has long been a major concern. This issue has become increasingly crucial due to the emergence of new communication architectures like the Internet of Things (IoT) and the advancement and complexity of infiltration techniques. For usage in networks based on the Internet of Things, previous intrusion detection systems (IDSs), which often use a centralized design to identify threats, are now ineffective. For the resolution of these issues, this study presents a novel and cooperative approach to IoT intrusion detection that may be useful in resolving certain current security issues. The suggested approach chooses the most important attributes that best describe the communication between objects by using Black Hole Optimization (BHO). Additionally, a novel method for describing the network's matrix-based communication properties is put forward. The inputs of the suggested intrusion detection model consist of these two feature sets. The suggested technique splits the network into a number of subnets using the software-defined network (SDN). Monitoring of each subnet is done by a controller node, which uses a parallel combination of convolutional neural networks (PCNN) to determine the presence of security threats in the traffic passing through its subnet. The proposed method also uses the majority voting approach for the cooperation of controller nodes in order to more accurately detect attacks. The findings demonstrate that, in comparison to the prior approaches, the suggested cooperative strategy can detect assaults in the NSLKDD and NSW-NB15 datasets with an accuracy of 99.89 and 97.72 percent, respectively. This is a minimum 0.6 percent improvement.
