Blockchain technology is a decentralized and secure paradigm for data processing, sharing, and storing. It relies on consensus protocol for all decisions, which focuses on computational and resource capability. For example, proof of work (PoW) and proof of stake (PoS) are the most famous consensus protocols that are currently used. However, these current consensus protocols are required to recruit a node with a high computational or a large amount of cryptocurrency to act as a miner node and to generate a new block. Unfortunately, these PoW and PoS protocols could be impractical for adoption in today’s technological fields, such as the Internet of Things and healthcare. In addition, these protocols are susceptible to flexibility, security, and fairness issues, as they are discussed in detail in this work. Therefore, this paper introduces a proof of fairness (PoF) as a dynamic and secure consensus protocol for enhancing the mining selection process. The selection of the miner node is influenced by numerous factors, including the time required to generate a block based on the transaction’s sensitivity. Firstly, a reverse auction mechanism is designed as an incentive mechanism to encourage all nodes to participate in the miner selection process. In a reverse auction, each node will draw its strategy based on its computational capability and claimed cost. Secondly, an expressive language is developed to categorize transaction types based on their sensitivity to processing time, ensuring compatibility with our miner selection process. Thirdly, a homomorphic concept is designed as a security and privacy scheme to protect the bidder’s data confidentiality. Finally, an extensive evaluation involving numerical analysis was carried out to assess the efficiency of the suggested PoF protocol, which confirms that the proposed PoF is dynamic and more efficient than current PoW and PoS consensus protocols.

The relationship between the Internet of Things (IoT) and Blockchain has emerged to address the challenges of security, data integrity and transparency of IoT devices. Blockchain, with its distributed and decentralized nature, ensures reliable data transmission between IoT devices and security by preventing data manipulation. It also enhances the security and transparency of IoT applications by supporting automated and trusted transactions through smart contracts. In this context, Blockchain plays a critical role in making the IoT ecosystem more reliable and effective. In this study, we review studies that emphasize the importance of Blockchain technology for IoT security and propose various solutions. The proposed solutions include scalable frameworks for secure transactions in dynamic applications, Hyperledger Sawtooth-based frameworks that support secure logging of industrial activities, specialized access control mechanisms such as Trust-Based Access Control Mechanism (TABI), and IoT Cop monitoring framework that offers advanced security features. In addition, blockchain-based access control protocols, authentication systems and security models are aimed at enhancing IoT security. While most of the studies in the literature focus on the current challenges of IoT and Blockchain integration, they also reveal future research opportunities. These studies are briefly mentioned and the necessary ones are expressed in a table. In this way, it is aimed to create the necessary infrastructure for those who will work in this field.
