The Internet of Things (IoT) is a ubiquitous system connecting many different devices -the things -which can be accessed from the distance. The cyber-physical systems (CPS) monitor and control the things from the distance. As a result, the concepts of dependability and security get deeply intertwined. The increasing level of dynamicity, heterogeneity, and complexity adds to the system's vulnerability, and challenges its ability to react to faults. This paper summarizes state-of-the-art of existing work on anomaly detection, fault-tolerance and self-healing, and adds a number of other methods applicable to achieve resilience in an IoT. We particularly focus on non-intrusive methods ensuring data integrity in the network. Furthermore, this paper presents the main challenges in building a resilient IoT for CPS which is crucial in the era of smart CPS with enhanced connectivity (an excellent example of such a system is connected autonomous vehicles). It further summarizes our solutions, work-in-progress and future work to this topic to enable "Trustworthy IoT for CPS". Finally, this framework is illustrated on a selected use case: A smart sensor infrastructure in the transport domain.

“…Device tampering attacks also result in selective message eavesdropping attacks which acts as a base for launching other serious security attacks such as wormhole, black-hole attacks. The device tempering attacks can be avoided using various tempering proof techniques [58]- [60] proposed in the literature however require additional energy and processing costs.…”

The orchestration of cloud computing with wireless sensor network (WSN), termed as sensor-cloud has recently gained remarkable attention from both the academia and industry. It enhances the processing and storage capabilities of the resources-constrained sensor networks in various applications such as healthcare, habitat monitoring, battlefield surveillance, and disaster management etc. The diverse nature of sensor network applications imposes processing and storage limitation on the sensor networks, which can be overcome through integrating them with the cloud paradigm. Sensor-cloud offers numerous benefits such as flexibility, scalability, collaboration, automation, virtualization with enhanced processing and storage capabilities. However, these networks suffer from limited bandwidth, resources optimization, reliability, load balancing, latency , and security threats. Therefore, it is very important to secure the sensor-cloud architecture from various security attacks to preserve its integrity. The main components of the sensor-cloud architecture which can be attacked are : (i) the sensor nodes; (ii) the communication medium; and (iii) the remote cloud architecture. Although, security issues of these components are extensively studied, in the existing literature; however, a detailed analysis of various security attacks on the sensor-cloud architecture is still required. The main objective of this research is to present state-of-theart literature in the context of security issues of the sensor-cloud architecture along with their preventive measures. Moreover, several taxonomies of the security attacks from the architectural perspective of the sensor-cloud along with their innovative solutions are also provided.

“…The collection of multiple sensors in the WSN works in synchronization to integrate and perform the task of sensing the data. The data thus collected contain much deeper insights that were not possible with individual sensing capabilities [51,52]. Furthermore, optimal dynamic network topologies can be adopted to place the sensors at appropriate positions within the CPS ecosystem to cater to the needs of changing subjects and their surroundings.…”

“…Since all the data are available in digital form and stored on the cloud (mostly), its privacy and security are always questionable when a third party is involved. Several approaches have been proposed in the recent literature to mitigate the security issues in CPS within smart cities [52,60,119,122,124,129,[131][132][133][134][135][136][137][138][139][140][141][142][143].…”

A large section of the population around the globe is migrating towards urban settlements. Nations are working toward smart city projects to provide a better wellbeing for the inhabitants. Cyber-physical systems are at the core of the smart city setups. They are used in almost every system component within a smart city ecosystem. This paper attempts to discuss the key components and issues involved in transforming conventional cities into smart cities with a special focus on cyber-physical systems in the Indian context. The paper primarily focuses on the infrastructural facilities and technical knowhow to smartly convert classical cities that were built haphazardly due to overpopulation and ill planning into smart cities. It further discusses cyber-physical systems as a core component of smart city setups, highlighting the related security issues. The opportunities for businesses, governments, inhabitants, and other stakeholders in a smart city ecosystem in the Indian context are also discussed. Finally, it highlights the issues and challenges concerning technical, financial, and other social and infrastructural bottlenecks in the way of realizing smart city concepts along with future research directions.
