A Review on Security and Privacy Issues Pertaining to Cyber-Physical Systems in the Industry 5.0 Era

The advent of Industry 5.0 marks a transformative era where Cyber-Physical Systems(CPSs)seamlessly integrate physical processes with advanced digital technologies.However,as industries become increasingly interconnected and reliant on smart digital technologies,the intersection of physical and cyber domains introduces novel security considerations,endangering the entire industrial ecosystem.The transition towards a more cooperative setting,including humans and machines in Industry 5.0,together with the growing intricacy and interconnection of CPSs,presents distinct and diverse security and privacy challenges.In this regard,this study provides a comprehensive review of security and privacy concerns pertaining to CPSs in the context of Industry 5.0.The review commences by providing an outline of the role of CPSs in Industry 5.0 and then proceeds to conduct a thorough review of the different security risks associated with CPSs in the context of Industry 5.0.Afterward,the study also presents the privacy implications inherent in these systems,particularly in light of the massive data collection and processing required.In addition,the paper delineates potential avenues for future research and provides countermeasures to surmount these challenges.Overall,the study underscores the imperative of adopting comprehensive security and privacy strategies within the context of Industry 5.0.

Machine Learning Enabled Novel Real-Time IoT Targeted DoS/DDoS Cyber Attack Detection System

The increasing prevalence of Internet of Things(IoT)devices has introduced a new phase of connectivity in recent years and,concurrently,has opened the floodgates for growing cyber threats.Among the myriad of potential attacks,Denial of Service(DoS)attacks and Distributed Denial of Service(DDoS)attacks remain a dominant concern due to their capability to render services inoperable by overwhelming systems with an influx of traffic.As IoT devices often lack the inherent security measures found in more mature computing platforms,the need for robust DoS/DDoS detection systems tailored to IoT is paramount for the sustainable development of every domain that IoT serves.In this study,we investigate the effectiveness of three machine learning(ML)algorithms:extreme gradient boosting(XGB),multilayer perceptron(MLP)and random forest(RF),for the detection of IoTtargeted DoS/DDoS attacks and three feature engineering methods that have not been used in the existing stateof-the-art,and then employed the best performing algorithm to design a prototype of a novel real-time system towards detection of such DoS/DDoS attacks.The CICIoT2023 dataset was derived from the latest real-world IoT traffic,incorporates both benign and malicious network traffic patterns and after data preprocessing and feature engineering,the data was fed into our models for both training and validation,where findings suggest that while all threemodels exhibit commendable accuracy in detectingDoS/DDoS attacks,the use of particle swarmoptimization(PSO)for feature selection has made great improvements in the performance(accuracy,precsion recall and F1-score of 99.93%for XGB)of the ML models and their execution time(491.023 sceonds for XGB)compared to recursive feature elimination(RFE)and randomforest feature importance(RFI)methods.The proposed real-time system for DoS/DDoS attack detection entails the implementation of an platform capable of effectively processing and analyzing network traffic in real-time.This involvesemploying the best-performing ML algorithmfor detection and the integration of warning mechanisms.We believe this approach will significantly enhance the field of security research and continue to refine it based on future insights and developments.
