These infrastructures are very effective in providing a fast response to the respective queries of the requesting modules, but their distributed nature has introduced other problems such as security and privacy. To address these problems, various security-assisted communication mechanisms have been developed to safeguard every active module, i.e., devices and edges, from every possible vulnerability in the IoT. However, these methodologies have neglected one of the critical issues, which is the prediction of fraudulent devices, i.e., adversaries, preferably as early as possible in the IoT. In this paper, a hybrid communication mechanism is presented where the Hidden Markov Model (HMM) predicts the legitimacy of the requesting device (both source and destination), and the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) safeguards the reliability of the transmitted data over a shared communication medium, preferably through a secret shared key, i.e., , and timestamp information. A device becomes trusted if it has passed both evaluation levels, i.e., HMM and message decryption, within a stipulated time interval. The proposed hybrid, along with existing state-of-the-art approaches, has been simulated in the realistic environment of the IoT to verify the security measures. These evaluations were carried out in the presence of intruders capable of launching various attacks simultaneously, such as man-in-the-middle, device impersonations, and masquerading attacks. Moreover, the proposed approach has been proven to be more effective than existing state-of-the-art approaches due to its exceptional performance in communication, processing, and storage overheads, i.e., 13%, 19%, and 16%, respectively. Finally, the proposed hybrid approach is pruned against well-known security attacks in the IoT.展开更多

文摘The Tactile Internet of Things(TIoT)promises transformative applications—ranging from remote surgery to industrial robotics—by incorporating haptic feedback into traditional IoT systems.Yet TIoT’s stringent requirements for ultra-low latency,high reliability,and robust privacy present significant challenges.Conventional centralized Federated Learning(FL)architectures struggle with latency and privacy constraints,while fully distributed FL(DFL)faces scalability and non-IID data issues as client populations expand and datasets become increasingly heterogeneous.To address these limitations,we propose a Clustered Distributed Federated Learning(CDFL)architecture tailored for a 6G-enabled TIoT environment.Clients are grouped into clusters based on data similarity and/or geographical proximity,enabling local intra-cluster aggregation before inter-cluster model sharing.This hierarchical,peer-to-peer approach reduces communication overhead,mitigates non-IID effects,and eliminates single points of failure.By offloading aggregation to the network edge and leveraging dynamic clustering,CDFL enhances both computational and communication efficiency.Extensive analysis and simulation demonstrate that CDFL outperforms both centralized FL and DFL as the number of clients grows.Specifically,CDFL demonstrates up to a 30%reduction in training time under highly heterogeneous data distributions,indicating faster convergence.It also reduces communication overhead by approximately 40%compared to DFL.These improvements and enhanced network performance metrics highlight CDFL’s effectiveness for practical TIoT deployments.These results validate CDFL as a scalable,privacy-preserving solution for next-generation TIoT applications.
文摘In the context of the rapid iteration of information technology,the Internet of Things(IoT)has established itself as a pivotal hub connecting the digital world and the physical world.Wireless Sensor Networks(WSNs),deeply embedded in the perception layer architecture of the IoT,play a crucial role as“tactile nerve endings.”A vast number of micro sensor nodes are widely distributed in monitoring areas according to preset deployment strategies,continuously and accurately perceiving and collecting real-time data on environmental parameters such as temperature,humidity,light intensity,air pressure,and pollutant concentration.These data are transmitted to the IoT cloud platform through stable and reliable communication links,forming a massive and detailed basic data resource pool.By using cutting-edge big data processing algorithms,machine learning models,and artificial intelligence analysis tools,in-depth mining and intelligent analysis of these multi-source heterogeneous data are conducted to generate high-value-added decision-making bases.This precisely empowers multiple fields,including agriculture,medical and health care,smart home,environmental science,and industrial manufacturing,driving intelligent transformation and catalyzing society to move towards a new stage of high-quality development.This paper comprehensively analyzes the technical cores of the IoT and WSNs,systematically sorts out the advanced key technologies of WSNs and the evolution of their strategic significance in the IoT system,deeply explores the innovative application scenarios and practical effects of the two in specific vertical fields,and looks forward to the technological evolution trends.It provides a detailed and highly practical guiding reference for researchers,technical engineers,and industrial decision-makers.

文摘In the Satellite-integrated Internet of Things(S-IoT),data freshness in the time-sensitive scenarios could not be guaranteed over the timevarying topology with current distribution strategies aiming to reduce the transmission delay.To address this problem,in this paper,we propose an age-optimal caching distribution mechanism for the high-timeliness data collection in S-IoT by adopting a freshness metric,as called age of information(AoI)through the caching-based single-source multidestinations(SSMDs)transmission,namely Multi-AoI,with a well-designed cross-slot directed graph(CSG).With the proposed CSG,we make optimizations on the locations of cache nodes by solving a nonlinear integer programming problem on minimizing Multi-AoI.In particular,we put up forward three specific algorithms respectively for improving the Multi-AoI,i.e.,the minimum queuing delay algorithm(MQDA)based on node deviation from average level,the minimum propagation delay algorithm(MPDA)based on the node propagation delay reduction,and a delay balanced algorithm(DBA)based on node deviation from average level and propagation delay reduction.The simulation results show that the proposed mechanism can effectively improve the freshness of information compared with the random selection algorithm.

文摘Escalating cyber security threats and the increased use of Internet of Things(IoT)devices require utilisation of the latest technologies available to supply adequate protection.The aim of Intrusion Detection Systems(IDS)is to prevent malicious attacks that corrupt operations and interrupt data flow,which might have significant impact on critical industries and infrastructure.This research examines existing IDS,based on Artificial Intelligence(AI)for IoT devices,methods,and techniques.The contribution of this study consists of identification of the most effective IDS systems in terms of accuracy,precision,recall and F1-score;this research also considers training time.Results demonstrate that Graph Neural Networks(GNN)have several benefits over other traditional AI frameworks through their ability to achieve in excess of 99%accuracy in a relatively short training time,while also capable of learning from network traffic the inherent characteristics of different cyber-attacks.These findings identify the GNN(a Deep Learning AI method)as the most efficient IDS system.The novelty of this research lies also in the linking between high yielding AI-based IDS algorithms and the AI-based learning approach for data privacy protection.This research recommends Federated Learning(FL)as the AI training model,which increases data privacy protection and reduces network data flow,resulting in a more secure and efficient IDS solution.

文摘In the era of rapid development of Internet of Things(IoT),numerous machine-to-machine technologies have been applied to the industrial domain.Due to the divergence of IoT solutions,the industry is faced with a need to apply various technologies for automation and control.This fact leads to a demand for an establishing interworking mechanism which would allow smooth interoperability between heterogeneous devices.One of the major protocols widely used today in industrial electronic devices is Modbus.However,data generated by Modbus devices cannot be understood by IoT applications using different protocols,so it should be applied in a couple with an IoT service layer platform.oneM2M,a global IoT standard,can play the role of interconnecting various protocols,as it provides flexible tools suitable for building an interworking framework for industrial services.Therefore,in this paper,we propose an interworking architecture between devices working on the Modbus protocol and an IoT platform implemented based on oneM2M standards.In the proposed architecture,we introduce the way to model Modbus data as oneM2M resources,rules to map them to each other,procedures required to establish interoperable communication,and optimization methods for this architecture.We analyze our solution and provide an evaluation by implementing it based on a solar power management use case.The results demonstrate that our model is feasible and can be applied to real case scenarios.

文摘The power Internet of Things(IoT)is a significant trend in technology and a requirement for national strategic development.With the deepening digital transformation of the power grid,China’s power system has initially built a power IoT architecture comprising a perception,network,and platform application layer.However,owing to the structural complexity of the power system,the construction of the power IoT continues to face problems such as complex access management of massive heterogeneous equipment,diverse IoT protocol access methods,high concurrency of network communications,and weak data security protection.To address these issues,this study optimizes the existing architecture of the power IoT and designs an integrated management framework for the access of multi-source heterogeneous data in the power IoT,comprising cloud,pipe,edge,and terminal parts.It further reviews and analyzes the key technologies involved in the power IoT,such as the unified management of the physical model,high concurrent access,multi-protocol access,multi-source heterogeneous data storage management,and data security control,to provide a more flexible,efficient,secure,and easy-to-use solution for multi-source heterogeneous data access in the power IoT.

文摘With the continuous expansion of the Industrial Internet of Things(IIoT),more andmore 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 and secure keyupdates.Our scheme uses the elliptic curve algorithm,which is not only more efficient but also more suitable for IIoT-cloud environments.Finally,the security proof of SM2-KI-SIGN is given under the Elliptic Curve Discrete Logarithm(ECDL)assumption in the random oracle.
