"Blockchain for the IoT: Privacy-Preserving Protection of Sensor Data"

Abstract

A constantly growing pool of smart, connected Internet of Things (IoT) devices poses completely new challenges for business regarding security and privacy. In fact, the widespread adoption of smart products might depend on the ability of organizations to offer systems that ensure adequate sensor data integrity while guaranteeing sufficient user privacy. In light of these challenges, previous research indicates that blockchain technology may be a promising means to mitigate issues of data security arising in the IoT. Building upon the existing body of knowledge, we propose a design theory, including requirements, design principles, and features, for a blockchain-based sensor data protection system (SDPS) that leverages data certification. We then design and develop an instantiation of an SDPS (CertifiCar) in three iterative cycles that prevents the fraudulent manipulation of car mileage data. Furthermore, we provide an ex-post evaluation of our design theory considering CertifiCar and two additional use cases in the realm of pharmaceutical supply chains and energy microgrids. The evaluation results suggest that the proposed design ensures the tamper-resistant gathering, processing, and exchange of IoT sensor data in a privacy-preserving, scalable, and efficient manner.

Blockchain Technology for Sustainable Supply Chain Management: A Systematic Literature Review and a Classification Framework

“…In particular, blockchain can improve the quality of training data for an AI system. Given the developments in the fields of IoT, the adoption of smart products based on IoT and other technologies may require systems with high data integrity and user privacy, which can only be provided by blockchain technology [16].…”

COVID-19 what have we learned? The rise of social machines and connected devices in pandemic management following the concepts of predictive, preventive and personalized medicine

“…Open and public blockchain provides security without access control, serving as the transport layer for applications to be added to a network without the separate approval of trust. Design principles have already been proposed for 'tamperresistant gathering, processing, and exchange of IoT sensor data' [67] privacy-preserving blockchain-based sensor data protection systems (SDPS). One of the use cases for evaluating the SDPS is IoT in a pharmaceutical supply chain.…”

AI Business Model: An Integrative Business Approach

“…While most AI inventiveness craft economical improvement by recognizing an exclusively innovative opening and breaks, pleasing to the eye contemporary energies, delivering a market fragment that others business tycoons have overlooked, or crafting fresh markets, linked devices that nourish a continual creek of digital data about functionality, treatment, fabrication, requests, automated and robotic help center and more to a signi cant setting will make even more captivating economical revolutions (Gentsch, 2018, Hagras, 2018, Liu, et al, 2020, Scheer, 2012, Maedche, 2019. That conveys us to a key and signi cant point: As the Internet of Thing (IoT) amalgamation permit us for the improvement of business atmospheres where customers and trades can act and work together (Schultel et al, 2017, Valanarasu, 2019, Chan et al, 2015, Chanson et al, 2019).…”

“…How will it transform innovative business models using AI, Hologram and Internet of things further, as it will be imaginable to enterprise strategy understandings over products and things? The technology road map of IoT is described and de ned as below (Valanarasu, 2019, Schultel et al, 2017, Chan et al, 2015, Chanson et al, 2019. This road map also depict the growth of innovative business platform is along with the respective algorithms, tools and technology development.…”

“…AI is presently an extent where virtually no rules of rendezvous put on, and each nation will surface teething troubles in making security from algorithms and de ning cyber global regulation (Kearney, 2002 As the future of AI-driven digital business revolution is strictly tied to how countries accomplish their substantial data driven competences from across cyberspace, aqua space, and aerospace (Hedberg, 1996, Giotopoulos et al, 2012, Shan et al, 2019). There is a requirement to place a robust prominence on evolving data driven enterprises to collect more data, information and knowledge to evolve the AI landscape (Chang et al, 2018, Chanson et al, 2019Iansiti & Lakhani, 2020).…”
