Enhancing Iot Device Security In Smart Supply Chains Challenges And Solutions

Abstract

The integration of Internet of Things (IoT) devices into smart supply chains has revolutionized manufacturing and logistics by enabling real-time tracking, automation, and improved decision-making. Due to serious security flaws brought about by the growth of linked IoT devices, supply chains are now more vulnerable to assaults. In the context of smart supply chains, IoT device security poses unique challenges, including device heterogeneity, scalability constraints, data privacy concerns, and the potential for device manipulation. Given the decentralized and dynamic nature of IoT networks, we analyze existing security frameworks and highlight their shortcomings. Additionally, we suggest a multi-layered security strategy that incorporates cutting-edge encryption techniques, block chain, and edge computing to make IoT networks more resilient. This paper addresses these problems and offers practical security solutions in an effort to provide a roadmap for companies wishing to safeguard their IoT-enabled supply chains. This will guarantee reliability, secrecy, and data integrity in a world growing increasingly interconnected by the day.
