TrustNextGen: Security Aspects of Trustworthy Next-Generation Industrial Internet of Things

With the expansion of Internet of Things (IoT), security of smart devices is becoming major or primary concern in today’s era. The increasing demand of consumer electronics due its recent evolution, the personal information that is shared is becoming valuable. In addition, the next generation of Industrial IoT (IIoT) devices include features, such as low cost, automation, intelligence provision, reduced overhead, efficiency, and remote interactions while communicating or transmitting information among themselves. There are very few authors who have focused on next gen IIoT while improving the efficiency along with providing the security among devices in the network. Therefore, we have proposed a hybrid trusted model by integrating objective model and fuzzy evaluation matrix method to ensure a secure and efficient transmission method among devices in the network. The proposed mechanism is simulated and experimented over various parameters, such as detection ratio and network-related performance and functional tests compared to state-of-the-art solutions.
