New Security State Awareness Model for IoT Devices With Edge Intelligence

Abstract

Edge computing has become one of the most critical technologies in the Internet of Things (IoT), which is vulnerable to be hacked itself due to its closing to the terminals' wide variety of applications and digital assets. Aiming to find a new paradigm for cybersecurity based on edge computing at the device level, we leverage the storage, communication, and computational capabilities of edge computing devices to acquire and transform the massive amounts of data generated during work into the states. Through the analysis of the states, the security threats of the edge computing device can be identified. Based on the complex network theory, a security state awareness model is established, which can accurately indicate a device's current security state, be aware of the attack behavior, and perform protection methods.

Perceived usefulness of Internet of Things (IOT) in the quality of life of special needs and elderly individuals in Saudi Arabia

“…Literature has demonstrated the influence of IoTs on different areas of psychology, including special needs [ 1 , 2 ]. In essence, IoT is an emerging technology that relates various devices and systems that are used daily, such as sensors, appliances, actuators, computers, and cellular phones, with other relevant devices and people [ 8 , 9 ]. Now more than ever, the IoT plays a key role in ensuring that the current quality of life is better, easier, and more comfortable than it was before [ 10 ].…”
