Abstract With the continuous expansion of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), more and more organisations are placing large amounts of data in the cloud to reduce overheads. However, the channel between cloud servers and smart equipment is not trustworthy, so the issue of data authenticity needs to be addressed. The SM2 digital signature algorithm can provide an authentication mechanism for data to solve such problems. Unfortunately, it still suffers from the problem of key exposure. In order to address this concern, this study first introduces a key-insulated scheme, SM2-KI-SIGN, based on the SM2 algorithm. This scheme boasts strong key insulation… More >

Abstract In many IIoT architectures, various devices connect to the edge cloud via gateway systems. For data processing, numerous data are delivered to the edge cloud. Delivering data to an appropriate edge cloud is critical to improve IIoT service efficiency. There are two types of costs for this kind of IoT network: a communication cost and a computing cost. For service efficiency, the communication cost of data transmission should be minimized, and the computing cost in the edge cloud should be also minimized. Therefore, in this paper, the communication cost for data transmission is defined as the delay factor, and the… More >

Abstract The rapid growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the industrial sector has given rise to a new term: the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). The IIoT is a collection of devices, apps, and services that connect physical and virtual worlds to create smart, cost-effective, and scalable systems. Although the IIoT has been implemented and incorporated into a wide range of industrial control systems, maintaining its security and privacy remains a significant concern. In the IIoT contexts, an intrusion detection system (IDS) can be an effective security solution for ensuring data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. In this paper, we… More >

Abstract With the development of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), end devices (EDs) are equipped with more functions to capture information. Therefore, a large amount of data is generated at the edge of the network and needs to be processed. However, no matter whether these computing tasks are offloaded to traditional central clusters or mobile edge computing (MEC) devices, the data is short of security and may be changed during transmission. In view of this challenge, this paper proposes a trusted task offloading optimization scheme that can offer low latency and high bandwidth services for IIoT with data security. Blockchain… More >

Abstract Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) offers efficient communication among business partners and customers. With an enlargement of IoT tools connected through the internet, the ability of web traffic gets increased. Due to the raise in the size of network traffic, discovery of attacks in IIoT and malicious traffic in the early stages is a very demanding issues. A novel technique called Maximum Posterior Dichotomous Quadratic Discriminant Jaccardized Rocchio Emphasis Boost Classification (MPDQDJREBC) is introduced for accurate attack detection with minimum time consumption in IIoT. The proposed MPDQDJREBC technique includes feature selection and categorization. First, the network traffic features are collected… More >

Abstract The evolution of the Internet of Things (IoT) has empowered modern industries with the capability to implement large-scale IoT ecosystems, such as the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). The IIoT is vulnerable to a diverse range of cyberattacks that can be exploited by intruders and cause substantial reputational and financial harm to organizations. To preserve the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of IIoT networks, an anomaly-based intrusion detection system (IDS) can be used to provide secure, reliable, and efficient IIoT ecosystems. In this paper, we propose an anomaly-based IDS for IIoT networks as an effective security solution to efficiently and effectively… More >

Abstract The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) has been growing for presentations in industry in recent years. Security for the IIoT has unavoidably become a problem in terms of creating safe applications. Due to continual needs for new functionality, such as foresight, the number of linked devices in the industrial environment increases. Certification of fewer signatories gives strong authentication solutions and prevents trustworthy third parties from being publicly certified among available encryption instruments. Hence this blockchain-based endpoint protection platform (BCEPP) has been proposed to validate the network policies and reduce overall latency in isolation or hold endpoints. A resolver supports the… More >

Abstract Generally, the risks associated with malicious threats are increasing for the Internet of Things (IoT) and its related applications due to dependency on the Internet and the minimal resource availability of IoT devices. Thus, anomaly-based intrusion detection models for IoT networks are vital. Distinct detection methodologies need to be developed for the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) network as threat detection is a significant expectation of stakeholders. Machine learning approaches are considered to be evolving techniques that learn with experience, and such approaches have resulted in superior performance in various applications, such as pattern recognition, outlier analysis, and speech recognition.… More >
