IoT encompasses diverse physical entities, from smart home devices to autonomous vehicles, creating a complex environment with heterogeneous security models. This heterogeneity makes IoT sub-systems vulnerable to various network attacks. Modern security systems must therefore be more robust to ensure security and privacy for IoT applications. A highly secure IoT system also demands real time insight, requiring data collection at the edge of the computing layer. This diversity calls for a unified security model applied at the foundational level. Edge intelligence offers a direct approach to handling device diversity. A key goal of edge intelligence in IoT is to extract insight from local data; security models can then use this data to build local node protections, and integrating AI models yields an advanced security solution. This research proposes a novel deep learning algorithm for effective intrusion detection at the edge, supported by a cloud-based IoT framework. We evaluate the proposed cross modal deep learning algorithm against baseline models. The contribution is a cross domain Deep Neural Network (DNN) algorithm for intrusion detection. The objective is to assess a multi-method deep learning model to detect intrusions in IoT systems at the edge via community detection with modeled attention. We evaluate GCT auto-encoder, a novel framework integrating edge intelligence to identify security flaws. The model significantly improves performance and efficiency. On a network intrusion IoT dataset covering multiple attack scenarios, it achieved 0.908 accuracy, reduced learning loss to 0.00156, and outperformed existing approaches.
