Abstract As a distributed database, the system security of the blockchain is of great significance to prevent tampering, protect privacy, prevent double spending, and improve credibility. Due to the decentralized and trustless nature of blockchain, the security defense of the blockchain system has become one of the most important measures. This paper comprehensively reviews the research progress of blockchain security threats and collaborative defense, and we first introduce the overview, classification, and threat assessment process of blockchain security threats. Then, we investigate the research status of single-node defense technology and multi-node collaborative defense technology and summarize the blockchain security evaluation indicators… More >

Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) will significantly impact our social and economic lives in the near future. Many Internet of Things (IoT) applications aim to automate multiple tasks so inactive physical objects can behave independently of others. IoT devices, however, are also vulnerable, mostly because they lack the essential built-in security to thwart attackers. It is essential to perform the necessary adjustments in the structure of the IoT systems in order to create an end-to-end secure IoT environment. As a result, the IoT designs that are now in use do not completely support all of the advancements that have been… More >
