Abstract

The development of information and communication technologies (ICT) has led to many innovative technologies. The integration of technologies such as the internet of things (IoT), cloud computing, and machine learning concepts have given rise to Industry 4.0. Fog and edge computing have stepped in to fill the areas where cloud computing is inadequate to ensure these systems work quickly and efficiently. The number of connected devices has brought about cybersecurity issues. This study reviewed the current literature regarding edge/fog-based cybersecurity in IoT to display the current state.

Industry 4.0 Technologies

Industry 4.0 is transforming manufacturing by integrating manufacturing operations with ICT. There is a various amount of technologies that are utilized within Industry 4.0. Among these are cyber physical systems (CPS), cloud computing, blockchain, IoT, and big data analytics among others (Bai et al., 2020).

CPS combines information and material to increase industrial performance. IoT is seen as a complex form of CPS, integrating multiple devices that have capabilities such as sensing, communicating, and processing. An IoT system consists of machines, networks, the cloud, and terminals. The development of IoT is seen as a contributing factor to the development of Industry 4.0. By facilitating the communication between people and machines, IoT enables knowledge transfer between and within companies (Lu, 2017).
