Kenneth G. Crowther · IEEE Security & Privacy · 2024
This article explores the integration of shared responsibility and zero trust architecture models to enhance the cybersecurity of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) systems. It examines the foundational principles and challenges of each model, highlighting their philosophical contradictions and practical applications. By defining key elements and providing illustrative examples, the article identifies common ground and proposes a hybrid approach to secure IIoT deployments. The findings emphasize the importance of collaboration, standardization, and robust security practices to achieve a resilient and secure IIoT environment.
