Enhancing Cyber-Physical Systems Security: A Review of Deep Learning and Blockchain Integration
K. Selvi, Golda Dilip · 2024
Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) combine physical and computational elements to produce intelligent systems communicating with their surroundings. By integrating digital and physical processes, CPS provides increased functionality in various industries, including industry, transportation, and healthcare. However, there are security, data integrity, and privacy issues brought on by the extensive integration of CPS across several domains. Therefore, addressing these issues is significant for an effective and reliable CPS model. This study presents a comprehensive review exploring the synergistic relationship between two cutting-edge technologies, Deep Learning (DL) and Blockchain, deployed to resolve these issues in CPS. This study explores the efficiency of leveraging DL and blockchain to enhance the reliability and effectiveness of the CPS models. Also, this study examines the challenges and limitations faced by those DL and blockchain approaches during their implementation across different CPS domains. This comprehensive review provides promising directions for future research in this dynamic and interdisciplinary field for mitigating the challenges in CPS models. It also aids researchers, practitioners, and policymakers by providing a deeper understanding of the possible effects, difficulties, and opportunities related to utilizing DL and Blockchain technologies to improve the security and functionality of CPS.
