The Internet of Things (IoT) realized exponential growth of smart devices with decent capabilities, promising an era of Edge Intelligence. This paradigm creates a timely need to shift many computations closer to the data source at the network's edge. Data privacy is paramount, as security breaches can severely impact such an environment with its vast attack surface. The advent of Federated learning (FL), a privacy-by-design with decentralized machine learning (ML), enables participants to collaboratively train a model without sharing their sensitive data. Nevertheless, privacy implications are a glaring concern and perrier for widening the utilization of FL approaches and their mass adoption over IoT applications. This paper introduces the notion of FL over the Internet of Disconnected Things (FLIoDT), a functionality separation of concerns following the air-gapped networks. FLIoDT provides a practical methodology to mitigate Data threats/attacks in the FL domain. FLIoDT proves a practical architectural approach to mitigate several attacks in an Edge environment. Data dredging and adversarial attacks, like data poisoning, to name some. This study investigates human activity recognition of health monitoring patient data over edge computing to validate FLIoDT. © 2022 IEEE.
