Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is made up of intelligent devices that interact with each other. It allows information to be gathered and shared by these devices. In addition, IoT now has a wide range of life applications such as business, logistics, health monitoring, smart ecosystem, and information concerning individuals, social and private environments. Security-related issues involved in such a communication network are drastically increasing day by day. Therefore, existing authentication and authorization concepts must grow along with technological evolution. This paper presents an artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted Bio-inspired algorithm for secure IoT communication networks (AI-BIAS) to improve future communication. The proposed framework is categorized into two sections: First, the Bio-inspired algorithm-assisted blockchain technology for authentication and authorization in the IoT communication network is presented. Further, the Artificial Intelligence algorithm monitors the proposed IoT communication network. The experimental results show that the proposed model enhances the accuracy ratio of 98.3%, average latency of 26 ms, average cost of 25.7%, authentication time 0.04 ms, multistep prediction’s MAPE, and RMSE values are 0.7645 and 0.9878 when compared to other popular methods.
