TLS - Secured Temperature Management With Cybersecurity

This research proposes a real-time monitoring system for industrial processes aimed at reducing electricity consumption and costs while prioritizing cyber-security. The focus is on creating a Temperature Management System (TMS) with robust security measures, achieved through the implementation of the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol to establish encrypted and secure communication channels. By employing TLS, the system ensures that components such as sensors, actuators, and the central control unit can communicate confidential, authenticated, and tamper-resistant data. Temperature and fire parameters are measured using Thermocoupled K-type temperature sensors, with data communicated to a microprocessor and mobile device via a 4G module. All components are connected to a 32-bit microcontroller to enhance safety and minimize risks in potentially hazardous industrial environments. The proposed system is designed to address various tasks in industrial locations, including humidity measurement, fire detection, and equipment control. Integration with the Internet of Things (IoT) improves firefighting capabilities and emergency responses for fire brigades. Overall, this approach offers a comprehensive solution for managing, monitoring, and responding to critical circumstances in industrial environments, contributing to enhanced safety and security.
