Abstract

Digital healthcare is a composite infrastructure of networking entities that includes the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT)-based Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), base stations, services provider, and other concerned components. In the recent decade, it has been noted that the demand for this emerging technology is gradually increased with cost-effective results. Although this technology offers extraordinary results, but at the same time, it also offers multifarious security perils that need to be handled effectively to preserve the trust among all engaged stakeholders. For this, the literature proposes several authentications and data preservation schemes, but somehow they fail to tackle this issue with effectual results. Keeping in view, these constraints, in this paper, we proposed a lightweight authentication and data preservation scheme for IoT based-CPS utilizing deep learning (DL) to facilitate decentralized authentication among legal devices. With decentralized authentication, we have depreciated the validation latency among pairing devices followed by improved communication statistics. Moreover, the experimental results were compared with the benchmark models to acknowledge the significance of our model. During the evaluation phase, the proposed model reveals incredible advancement in terms of comparative parameters in comparison with benchmark models.
