Security and Privacy for Green IoT-based Agriculture: Review, Blockchain solutions, and Challenges
open access articleThis paper presents research challenges on security and privacy issues in the field of green IoT-based agriculture. We start by describing a four-tier green IoT-based agriculture architecture and summarizing the existing surveys that deal with smart agriculture. Then, we provide a classification of threat models against green IoT-based agriculture into five categories, including, attacks against privacy, authentication, confidentiality, availability, and integrity properties. Moreover, we provide a taxonomy and a side-by-side comparison of the state-of-the-art methods toward secure and privacy-preserving technologies for IoT applications and how they will be adapted for green IoT-based agriculture. In addition, we analyze the privacy-oriented blockchain-based solutions as well as consensus algorithms for IoT applications and how they will be adapted for green IoT-based agriculture. Based on the current survey, we highlight open research challenges and discuss possible future research directions in the security and privacy of green IoT-based agriculture
Failure Analysis in Next-Generation Critical Cellular Communication Infrastructures
The advent of communication technologies marks a transformative phase in
critical infrastructure construction, where the meticulous analysis of failures
becomes paramount in achieving the fundamental objectives of continuity,
security, and availability. This survey enriches the discourse on failures,
failure analysis, and countermeasures in the context of the next-generation
critical communication infrastructures. Through an exhaustive examination of
existing literature, we discern and categorize prominent research orientations
with focuses on, namely resource depletion, security vulnerabilities, and
system availability concerns. We also analyze constructive countermeasures
tailored to address identified failure scenarios and their prevention.
Furthermore, the survey emphasizes the imperative for standardization in
addressing failures related to Artificial Intelligence (AI) within the ambit of
the sixth-generation (6G) networks, accounting for the forward-looking
perspective for the envisioned intelligence of 6G network architecture. By
identifying new challenges and delineating future research directions, this
survey can help guide stakeholders toward unexplored territories, fostering
innovation and resilience in critical communication infrastructure development
and failure prevention
