Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) has transformed everyday environments into interconnected cyber–physical systems, enabling automation and assistance for diverse applications such as home automation and disability support. However, IoT security remains a critical concern, particularly in the realm of Public Key Infrastructure (PKI). Traditional PKI solutions are often impractical for IoT devices due to their resource limitations, prompting the development of “lightweight” PKI solutions in recent academic research. This article presents a comprehensive Systematic Literature Review (SLR) focused on articles published between 2008 and 2022 that explore lightweight PKI solutions tailored for IoT. The review categorizes current trends, identifies challenges, and highlights potential opportunities in the field. Despite the promise of lightweight PKI for IoT, significant implementation barriers persist. The article concludes by outlining key steps for developing effective lightweight PKI solutions and offers practical recommendations to address these challenges.

物联网的轻量级公钥基础设施：系统性文献综述

物联网（IoT）已将日常环境转变为相互连接的网络物理系统，为家庭自动化和残疾人支持等各种应用提供自动化和帮助。然而，物联网的安全性仍然是一个关键问题，尤其是在公钥基础设施（PKI）领域。由于资源的限制，传统的 PKI 解决方案对于物联网设备来说往往不切实际，这促使最近的学术研究开发出了 "轻量级 "PKI 解决方案。本文对 2008 年至 2022 年间发表的文章进行了全面的系统文献综述（SLR），重点探讨了为物联网量身定制的轻量级 PKI 解决方案。该综述对当前趋势进行了分类，指出了挑战，并强调了该领域的潜在机遇。尽管轻量级 PKI 在物联网领域大有可为，但在实施方面仍然存在重大障碍。文章最后概述了开发有效轻量级 PKI 解决方案的关键步骤，并提出了应对这些挑战的实用建议。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Industrial Information Integration focuses on the industry's transition towards industrial integration and informatization, covering not only hardware and software but also information integration. It serves as a platform for promoting advances in industrial information integration, addressing challenges, issues, and solutions in an interdisciplinary forum for researchers, practitioners, and policy makers. The Journal of Industrial Information Integration welcomes papers on foundational, technical, and practical aspects of industrial information integration, emphasizing the complex and cross-disciplinary topics that arise in industrial integration. Techniques from mathematical science, computer science, computer engineering, electrical and electronic engineering, manufacturing engineering, and engineering management are crucial in this context.
