The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network where physical devices, sensors, appliances and other different objects can communicate with each other without the need for human intervention. Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are main building blocks of the IoT. Both the IoT and WSNs have many critical and non-critical applications that touch almost every aspect of our modern life. Unfortunately, these networks are prone to various types of security threats. Therefore, the security of IoT and WSNs became crucial. Furthermore, the resource limitations of the devices used in these networks complicate the problem. One of the most recent and effective approaches to address such challenges is machine learning. Machine learning inspires many solutions to secure the IoT and WSNs. In this paper, we survey the different threats that can attack both IoT and WSNs and the machine learning techniques developed to counter them.
