Ensuring the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of IoT data in Industry 5.0: A Systematic Mapping Study

The significant success of the Internet of Things in facilitating connections among consumer devices has led to an evident inclination towards connecting devices within industrial environments, commonly known as the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Meanwhile, the integration of DevOps and DevSecOps into Industry 5.0 is generating much interest in both industry and academia, and its adoption in practice is raising a lot of challenges. This study aims to organize the knowledge about the challenges encountered by the Industry and practitioners when adopting DevOps and DevSecOps in the Industry 5.0 environment, as well as suggested practices documented in the literature.We also identify the security challenges related to data integrity, confidentiality, and availability of Industrial IoT data. We conducted a Systematic Mapping Review of more than a thousand papers and focused on 57 peerreviewed studies published between January 2019 and March 2024. We have identified challenges and benefits associated with adopting DevOps and DevSecOps in Industry 5.0. We have also identified specific security solutions, particularly in the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), as well as the correlation between these findings. The study results were classified into organizational, technical, and regulatory. The findings show that the most frequently reported challenges and solutions were related to technical. Although organizational factors were considered critical for successfully adopting DevOps and DevSecOps in Industry 5.0, they required more investigation. Our study offers a comprehensive analysis of the research to secure the industrial Internet of Things, discusses their applicability, and analyzes their security benefits by integrating DevOps and DevSecOps in Industry 4.0.
