A model proposal for enhancing cyber security in industrial IoT environments.

The revolution of the industrial sector in the automated one has happened with the use of the Industrial Internet of things (IIoT). They are providing unprecedented possibilities for connection, and automation. Also, the ubiquitous of IIoT has brought new cyber security challenges, putting sensitive data at risk. This research paper proposes a comprehensive model for enhancing the cyber security of IIoT systems. Our model integrates various countermeasures, including a proactive assessment of security vulnerabilities, examination of identified vulnerabilities, categorizing data, delivery of comprehensive reports, and assurance of effective countermeasures based on a cost-benefit approach, aligned with industry standards and frameworks. The proposed model aims to address the need for the development of robust and resilient cyber security solutions for IIoT environments. This research work introduces the proposed model's main functions, integration, workflow, and references. With this research, we contribute to the enhancement of cyber security in the IIoT environment by proposing a model that assists with proactive assessment, effective response, and informed decision-making. We envision that the proposed model will support industrial organizations in securing their IIoT systems against cyber threats, ultimately have stability and secure industrial operations.
