Abstract

With the rise of IoT devices in smart homes, child safety has emerged as a key issue for modern parents. This study proposes CA-SHIELD (Context-Aware Smart Home IoT Enforcement for Limiting Danger), a dynamic access control framework that adapts based on user identity, activity context, and risk level. Evaluated using the 2024 REALHome Dataset, which includes over 45,000 hours of smart home data from 20 family households, CA-SHIELD employs a hybrid approach—merging rule-based logic with LSTM-powered context recognition. The system effectively identifies unsafe access attempts with 95.2% accuracy and reduces children's risky interactions with IoT devices by 92.8%, all without disrupting daily routines. Compared to traditional role-based models, CA-SHIELD improves precision by 18.5% and overall control effectiveness by 21.3%, highlighting its potential as a robust safety layer in child-focused smart environments.
