The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the promising technologies of the future. It offers many attractive features that we depend on nowadays with less effort and faster in real-time. However, it is still vulnerable to various threats and attacks due to the obstacles of its heterogeneous ecosystem, adaptive protocols, and self-configurations. In this paper, three different 6LoWPAN attacks are implemented in the IoT via Contiki OS to generate the proposed dataset that reflects the 6LoWPAN features in IoT. For analyzed attacks, six scenarios have been implemented. Three of these are free of malicious nodes, and the others scenarios include malicious nodes. The typical scenarios are a benchmark for the malicious scenarios for comparison, extraction, and exploration of the features that are affected by attackers. These features are used as criteria input to train and test our proposed hybrid Intrusion Detection and Prevention System (IDPS) to detect and prevent 6LoWPAN attacks in the IoT ecosystem. The proposed hybrid IDPS has been trained and tested with improved accuracy on both KoU-6LoWPAN-IoT and Edge IIoT datasets. In the proposed hybrid IDPS for the detention phase, the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) classifier achieved the highest accuracy among the models in both the 2-class and N-class. Before the accuracy improved in our proposed dataset with the 4-class and 2-class mode, the ANN classifier achieved 95.65% and 99.95%, respectively, while after the accuracy optimization reached 99.84% and 99.97%, respectively. For the Edge IIoT dataset, before the accuracy improved with the 15-class and 2-class modes, the ANN classifier achieved 95.14% and 99.86%, respectively, while after the accuracy optimized up to 97.64% and 99.94%, respectively. Also, the decision tree-based models achieved lightweight models due to their lower computational complexity, so these have an appropriate edge computing deployment. Whereas other ML models reach heavyweight models and are required more computational complexity, these models have an appropriate deployment in cloud or fog computing in IoT networks.
