A Survey of Cybersecurity Certification for the Internet of Things

Abstract

In recent years, cybersecurity certification is gaining momentum as the baseline to build a structured approach to mitigate cybersecurity risks in the Internet of Things (IoT). This initiative is driven by industry, governmental institutions, and research communities, which have the goal to make IoT more secure for the end-users. In this survey, we analyze the current cybersecurity certification schemes, as well as the potential challenges to make them applicable for the IoT ecosystem. We also examine current efforts related to risk assessment and testing processes, which are widely recognized as the processes to build a cybersecurity certification framework. Our work provides a multidisciplinary perspective of a possible IoT cybersecurity certification framework by integrating research and technical tools and processes with policies and governance structures, which are analyzed against a set of identified challenges. This survey is intended to give a comprehensive overview of cybersecurity certification to facilitate the definition of a framework that fits in emerging scenarios, such as the IoT paradigm.

Temporal and Spatial Distribution of Suspended Sediment Concentration in Lakes Based on Satellite Remote Sensing and Internet of Things

“…The Internet of Things (IoT) can be regarded as a far-reaching vision with technical and social significance [15]. From the perspective of technology standardization, IoT can be regarded as the infrastructure of the global information society, providing physical interconnection (physical and virtual) on the basis of existing and emerging interoperable information and communication technologies (ICT) Advanced business [16].…”

[Retracted] Internet False News Information Feature Extraction and Screening Based on 5G Internet of Things Combined with Passive RFID

“…e algorithmic mechanism is a new thing in the Internet era, and the research in this field in the academic industry is not yet mature. As the core mechanism of Internet information flow, machine algorithms have a certain impact on citizens and society through the collection and processing of information distribution [6].…”

Securing Public Safety Communications on Commercial and Tactical 5G Networks: A Survey and Future Research Directions

“…However, existing certification approaches [96], [97] have been dedicated for cellphones or network equipment. As the device landscape for public safety operations is rapidly expanding, new solutions and schemes for testing and certifying [163] UAVs, sensors, cyber-physical systems, rescue robots, and other equipment used by authorities are needed. Similarly, these new devices also require platform security solution, which increase their robustness against different attacks but are also usable and easily deployable for public safety missions.…”
