A Blockchain-Enabled Framework to Enhance Cybersecurity Challenges in Smart Agriculture Joseph Bamidele Awotunde, Abidemi Emmanue Adeniyi, Peace Busola Falola, Temitayo Caroline Adeniran Blockchain and Digital Twin Applications in Smart Agriculture, 2025 The rapid development of smart agriculture has brought many benefits, such as increased efficiency and reduced resource wastage. However, with the integration of data and technology, security and privacy concerns have become a major challenge. This chapter reviews the security and privacy issues in smart agriculture, focusing on the implementation of blockchain technology as a potential solution. The chapter discusses the various threats and vulnerabilities faced by smart agriculture systems, such as data breaches and malicious attacks. The chapter then explores how blockchain technology can address these issues by providing a decentralized and secure platform for data management. The proposed framework highlights the potential of blockchain in improving the security and privacy of smart agriculture systems. The chapter provides recommendations for future research in this area, including the need for more comprehensive security frameworks and the integration of other emerging technologies. This chapter serves as a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners in the field of smart agriculture, providing insights into the current state and potential growth of blockchain-enabled approaches for addressing security and privacy concerns.
Evaluation of an Enhanced Dynamic Knowledge-Based Authentication System (EDKBA) in the Era of Social Media Temitayo C. Adeniran, Rasheed G. Jimoh, Emmanuel U. Abah, Nasir Faruk, Emmanuel Alozie 2023 2nd International Conference on Multidisciplinary Engineering and Applied Science Icmeas 2023, 2023 Services related to information and communication technology (ICT) today require secure personal identity verification methods to guard against unauthorized access. There are several authentication methods, with traditional passwords being the most popular one. Passwords are susceptible to threats like eavesdropping and forgotten passwords, though. One of the finest substitutes for conventional passwords was knowledge-based authentication (KBA), which verifies identification using public records. Static and dynamic KBAs are examples of KBAs that are vulnerable to theft and modification. The goal of the study was to develop and implement an enhanced DKBA (EDKBA) system that uses challenge response questions and answers to authenticate users in real time. Two attack models, naive attack (guessing) and strategic attack (brute force), were used to evaluate the effectiveness of the EDKBA system. The developed EDKBA provided improved security by dynamically generating authentication questions based on real-time information about users' weekly Facebook activities. The EDKBA experiment showed a success rate and True Positive of 72.57% with an acceptable error rate (False Negative) of 27.43%. The study concluded that implementing EDKBA will reduce the rising risks brought on by unauthorized access to data and cybercrime, which would directly improve the overall security of sensitive data and information.
Secure transmission in an unfriendly environment Lukman A. Olawoyin, Nasir Faruk, Abdulkarim A. Oloyede, Segun I. Popoola, Temitayo C. Adeniran, Nazmat T. Surajudeen-Bakinde, Abubakar Abdulkarim ICT Express, 2020 This work investigates and show the performance of destination assisted node in ensuring secure communication in a dual-hop broadcast system. The information transmission occurs between the transmitters which are assumed to be equipped with single antenna through a number of intermediate untrusted relays to the receiver in the presence of multiple passive eavesdroppers. This work assumes that there is no direct link between the transmitter and the receiver and hence, the relay node, receives either the information or noise signal at every transmission processes. Since the transmission occurs in a two-phase, the legitimate receiver is contributing a degrading noise to both the eavesdropper and relay node channels during the first phase while it receives information from the transmitter through the relay during the second phase. Simulation results are used to illustrate the performance of the proposed scheme.
