The paper at hand presents a summary of the work conducted in [1]. It shows how a wireless Intrusion Detection System (IDS) successfully reports malicious activities to a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system. By doing so, a variety of IoT devices are protected from potential cyber-attacks. Leveraging the capabilities of the SIEM platform, the events coming from different sources are effectively correleted and analyzed, increasing the situational awareness of the security operator. Exhaustive experiments demonstrate that the proposed architecture is applicable to several wireless sceanarios in which the devices are exposed to cyber intruders.
