Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This paper analyzes the dynamics of cyberattacks and fraud techniques using machine learning algorithms for Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) systems. Special attention is paid to information security issues of digital twins within the framework of the Industry 4.0 concept. Various machine learning techniques, such as logistic regression, random forest, and the nearest neighbor method, are considered for classifying attacks in IIoT systems, taking into account the problem of data imbalance inherent in rare attacks. The use of data balancing and cross-validation methods can improve the accuracy of the models and minimize the number of false positives. The results demonstrate that the random forest model outperforms other methods in terms of accuracy, confirming its effectiveness for IIoT security and digital twin protection. Additionally, feature selection and optimization techniques were explored to enhance model performance further. The study also highlights the importance of real-time threat detection, which is crucial for maintaining the integrity and resilience of IIoT environments. Future research is planned to investigate more sophisticated methods, including deep learning, to improve attack detection and classification in the context of Industry 4.0. The integration of federated learning and adaptive AI-driven security measures may also offer promising solutions to emerging cyber threats.
