Blockchain for Industry 4.0: A Comprehensive Review

Abstract: Due to the proliferation of ICT during the last few decades, there is an exponential increase in the usage of various smart applications such as smart farming, smart healthcare, supply-chain & logistics, business, tourism and hospitality, energy management etc. However, for all the aforementioned applications, security and privacy are major concerns keeping in view of the usage of the open channel, i.e., Internet for data transfer. Although many security solutions and standards have been proposed over the year… Show more

“…Some occur due to cyber-attacks that cause an operational disruption in the SC; others cause an operational disruption affecting the entire Supply Chain, and others are produced by an inappropriate interaction between man and machine [ 55 ]. In addition to Cybersecurity, security in the traceability of operations is also necessary, for which a reference architecture of the applicability of Blockchain technology is necessary as well [ 56 ].…”

“…BC is a new rising technology which has drawn the attention of researchers from different domains. The first BC application in the market was bitcoin and distributed electronic cash system that defined further how BC could be used in other fields like voting and IPR 13–16 . Kosba et al 17 offered a decentralized smart contract framework named Hawk, dissimilar to other existing decentralized BC frameworks in which all the changes are perceivable obviously on the BC 18–21 .…”

“… Communication infrastructure: The existing communication infrastructure for IoT is susceptible to a variety of cyber attacks. Hence, it necessitates focusing on the potential solution, which can solve these issues in terms of security and privacy. Data integrity verification: There is a requirement to develop integrity verification and recovery method for complex data entities such as graph in large‐scale IoT data. Scalable and trusted network management: IoT industry requires highly scalable, reliable, and secure network management scheme, which can play a prominent role in secure data dissemination [88 ]. Efficient verification protocol: Industry 4.0 lacks an efficient and secure verification protocol, which helps to monitor incoming and outgoing traffic in the network [89 ]. Single point of failure: Centralised cloud platform to distribute the information is not feasible in the IoT environment because of its limitations. It includes un‐secure connectivity to a local resource, limited bandwidth, and many more.…”
