“…In addition, it transforms into a two-way proftable platform by which both the consumer and farmer get beneftted. In the existing system, even though user authentication is provided [4,5], there may be a chance of identity theft of the user, resulting in a loss of privacy and protection for entities. Some malevolent users can gain access to the network of authenticated users by stealing information from authorised users.…”

With the advancement in information and communication technology (ICT), secure farm-to-home communication has become an emerging concept. Food is the most basic essential commodity for the survival of human beings which is produced by farmers. However, because of the presence of intermediaries, farmers/producers do not make a sufficient profit and also the consumers have to pay more money to buy food items from these mediators. As a result, in this work, we proposed an efficient farm-to-home anonymous authentication privacy-preserving scheme in which the storehouse will buy goods from farmers and sell them to the consumers at the base rate. Moreover, in our scheme, an unprofitable trusted delivery agent assists in the transfer of food commodities between end users and storehouses to provide maximum profit for the farmers and consumers. Further, essential security parameters are provided to the end users and it provides conditional privacy to the delivery agent; i.e., if any mishap occurs, then the malicious delivery agent’s privacy is revoked to avoid further damage to the system. The performance analysis section shows that our scheme supports the transfer of food commodities with minimum computational and communication costs.

Multiaccess Edge Computing (MEC) has been adopted to provide an environment that supports cloud computing capabilities and IT services at the network edge. The open architecture of cloud computing and network access at the edge provides malicious actors with many attack vectors. The MEC system entities cannot be permanently trusted due to the dynamic and shareable nature of MEC deployments. This paper presents a classification of MEC entities that can be used to define security controls based on the Zero-Trust Security approach. The security controls are organised into a maturity framework that can be used to guide the systematic development of trust and security in an MEC environment. In this framework, a Minimum Viable Security posture defines the first operational step towards full implementation of Zero-Trust Security in an MEC environment.

“…The security industry offers Security Orchestration, Automation and Response (SOAR) frameworks to provide an automated and proactive security approach to this type of critical threat [33]. • Man-in-the-Middle: The MitM attack is characterised by the presence of a malicious third party interposed between two or more communicating parties, and secretly relaying or intercepting the communication between the parties [79], [101]. For the MEC scenario, a MitM attack is categorised as an infrastructure attack, where the malicious attacker tries to hijack a specific network segment and begins to launch attacks, such as eavesdropping and phishing, on connected devices [98], [100].…”

Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) is an extension of cloud computing that aims to provide computation, storage, and networking capabilities at the edge of the network in close proximity to end-users. The MEC architecture supports applications and services that bridge between cloud computing and end-users. The architecture includes devices and systems that are interconnected, layered, and flexibly deployed. As a result of the technological advancements, MEC is facing a myriad of highly sophisticated threats. This paper provides a review of MEC Architecture, use cases, conceptual guidelines for MEC security architecture, security and privacy techniques, and identifies current and future challenges, their implications, and approaches to overcome the challenges. This research examined significant threats, described the MEC architecture, identified the susceptible functional layers, the different categories of threats, and the potential security safeguards. The research recommends that MEC providers should implement multiple layers of security controls to mitigate targeted attacks.
