Authentication for decentralized Cyber-Physical Systems

This work is motivated by the need for a suitable authentication mechanism for our proposed decentralized File-based Internet of Things (IoT) System.

NFT-based Authentication for Cyber-Physical Systems in Smart Cities Context

This is Usman’s PhD work. In this work, we proposed a novel authentication mechanism for decentralized Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) by integrating block-chain technology and IoT with an expansion to the Non-Fungible Token (NFT) attributes to cater for the needs in CSPs.
