Securing healthcare data in industrial cyber-physical systems using combining deep learning and blockchain technology

Industrial cyber–physical systems (ICPS) are emerging platforms for various industrial applications. For instance, remote healthcare monitoring, real-time healthcare data generation, and many other applications have been integrated into the ICPS platform. These healthcare applications encompass workflow tasks, such as processing within hospitals, laboratory tests, and insurance companies for patient payments, which necessitate a sequential flow. The external wireless, fog, and cloud services within ICPS face security issues that impact end-users’ healthcare applications. Blockchain technology offers an optimal solution for ICPS-enabled applications. However, blockchain technology for the ICPS platform is still vulnerable to cyberattacks, while microservices are essential for executing applications. This paper introduces the novel “Pattern-Proof Malware Validation” (PoPMV) algorithm designed for blockchain in ICPS. It exploits a deep learning model (LSTM) with reinforcement learning techniques to receive feedback and rewards in real-time. The primary objective is to mitigate security vulnerabilities, enhance processing speed, identify both familiar and unfamiliar attacks, and optimize the functionality of ICPS. Simulations demonstrate the superiority of the proposed approach compared to current blockchain frameworks, showcasing dynamic allocation of microservices and improved security with comprehensive attack detection by 30%.
