AdaCap-IIoT: A reference architecture for adaptive blockchain-enabled CapBAC

This academic paper presents AdaCap-IIoT, a reference architecture that combines adaptive blockchain (a distributed ledger that can adjust its rules and processes) with CapBAC (capability-based access control, a security method where users get specific permissions for particular resources) designed for Industrial IoT (internet-connected devices in manufacturing and industrial settings). The work aims to provide a framework for securing industrial systems by combining adaptive blockchain technology with flexible permission management.
