“…APTs not only cause significant financial losses but also threaten human life safety [31]. The most significant feature of APTs is that they can evade high-level security systems, steal or manipulate information, and have a negative impact on equipment [32]. Stuxnet, an example of an APT, is a malicious virus that specifically targets industrial control systems.…”

The industrial internet of things (IIoT) is a key pillar of the intelligent society, integrating traditional industry with modern information technology to improve production efficiency and quality. However, the IIoT also faces serious challenges from advanced persistent threats (APTs), a stealthy and persistent method of attack that can cause enormous losses and damages. In this paper, we give the definition and development of APTs. Furthermore, we examine the types of APT attacks that each layer of the four-layer IIoT reference architecture may face and review existing defense techniques. Next, we use several models to model and analyze APT activities in IIoT to identify their inherent characteristics and patterns. Finally, based on a thorough discussion of IIoT security issues, we propose some open research topics and directions.

“…Focusing on machine learning, machine-to-machine (M2M) communication, big data, and IIoT-capable enterprises, industries will have suitable reliability and efficiency in operation. The interaction of operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) marks a distinction between IoT and IIOT [ 6 , 7 ].…”

In recent years, the Internet of Things (IoT) has had a big impact on both industry and academia. Its profound impact is particularly felt in the industrial sector, where the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), also known as Industry 4.0, is revolutionizing manufacturing and production through the fusion of cutting-edge technologies and network-embedded sensing devices. The IIoT revolutionizes several industries, including crucial ones such as oil and gas, water purification and distribution, energy, and chemicals, by integrating information technology (IT) with industrial control and automation systems. Water, a vital resource for life, is a symbol of the advancement of technology, yet knowledge of potential cyberattacks and their catastrophic effects on water treatment facilities is still insufficient. Even seemingly insignificant errors can have serious consequences, such as aberrant pH values or fluctuations in the concentration of hydrochloric acid (HCI) in water, which can result in fatalities or serious diseases. The water purification and distribution industry has been the target of numerous hostile cyber security attacks, some of which have been identified, revealed, and documented in this paper. Our goal is to understand the range of security threats that are present in this industry. Through the lens of IIoT, the survey provides a technical investigation that covers attack models, actual cases of cyber intrusions in the water sector, a range of security difficulties encountered, and preventative security solutions. We also explore upcoming perspectives, illuminating the predicted advancements and orientations in this dynamic subject. For industrial practitioners and aspiring scholars alike, our work is a useful, enlightening, and current resource. We want to promote a thorough grasp of the cybersecurity landscape in the water industry by combining key insights and igniting group efforts toward a safe and dependable digital future.
