The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) paradigm is a key research area derived from the Internet of Things (IoT). The emergence of IIoT has enabled a revolution in manufacturing and production, through the employment of various embedded sensing devices connected by an IoT network, along with a collection of enabling technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI) and edge/fog computing. One of the unrivaled characteristics of IIoT is the inter-connectivity provided to industries; however, this characteristic might open the door for cyber-criminals to launch various attacks. In fact, one of the major challenges hindering the prevalent adoption of the IIoT paradigm is IoT security. Inevitably, there has been an inevitable increase in research proposals over the last decade to overcome these security concerns. To obtain an overview of this research area, conducting a literature survey of the published research is necessary, eliciting the various security requirements and their considerations. This paper provides a literature survey of IIoT security, focused on the period from 2017 to 2023. We identify IIoT security threats and classify them into three categories, based on the IIoT layer they exploit to launch these attacks. Additionally, we characterize the security requirements that these attacks violate. Finally, we highlight how emerging technologies, such as AI and edge/fog computing, can be adopted to address security concerns and enhance IIoT security.

“…The DoS among the most common attacks against the network layer insert high volumes of useless data packets into the network. Attacker compromised nodes may also refuse connection requests from other devices and nodes on the network [26]. When DoS attacks are conducted en masse involving thousands of attacking nodes that produce erroneous data packets of generous size they become distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks [21], [27].…”

“…Flooding and routing attacks that occur in the network layer in turn result in DoS/DDoS type attacks. Owing to the identification of common DoS/DDoS type attacks in both the network [21], [26], [27] and software layers [22], [23], [28] the literature survey supports a reduction from eleven (11) individual to four (4) distinct common malicious attacks on the six (6) common security failures in the IoT ecosystem:…”

The Internet of Things (IoT) is transforming the world on almost a daily basis. There are tens of billions of things interconnected and that number is growing daily. Everywhere the IOT is present security is critical, especially in healthcare applications. Reported frequently are exploitations of security failings within the IoT. The exploitation of IoT security failures can result in dramatic consequences including loss of human life. This makes it essential to create a culture of awareness of the potential security failures within the IoT and their available mitigations. This article begins the engendering of that awareness. Presented is a simplified three-tier architecture of the IoT to serve as a lens to view the commonalities in the diverse IoT ecosystem. While there are multiple security weaknesses in the IoT ecosystem and numerous individual malicious attacks potentially exploiting them the viewpoint presented provides for the distillation of those into a common group that indicates a finite set of mitigation techniques. When applied these mitigations make the entire IoT ecosystem secure against the currently known exploitations.

The growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) offers numerous opportunities for developing industrial applications such as smart grids, smart cities, smart manufacturers, etc. By utilising these opportunities, businesses engage in creating the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). IoT is vulnerable to hacks and, therefore, requires various techniques to achieve the level of security required. Furthermore, the wider implementation of IIoT causes an even greater security risk than its benefits. To provide a roadmap for researchers, this survey discusses the integrity of industrial IoT systems and highlights the existing security approaches for the most significant industrial applications. This paper mainly classifies the attacks and possible security solutions regarding IoT layers architecture. Consequently, each attack is connected to one or more layers of the architecture accompanied by a literature analysis on the various IoT security countermeasures. It further provides a critical analysis of the existing IoT/IIoT solutions based on different security mechanisms, including communications protocols, networking, cryptography and intrusion detection systems. Additionally, there is a discussion of the emerging tools and simulations used for testing and evaluating security mechanisms in IoT applications. Last, this survey outlines several other relevant research issues and challenges for IoT/IIoT security.
