The Internet of Things (IoT) is the technology between machines and the internet, enabling multiple facilities, including ubiquitous control, monitoring, and smart services [1]. The advent of the 5G network and the availability of high-speed internet access has fueled the growth of this sector [2]. At the current growth rate of 16.7% [3], the net IoT market worth is expected to cross USD 300 billion [4]. However, this massive market suffers from security vulnerabilities. IoT devices are compact, low-cost, and consume little power. With these features in an IoT product, a company will lose market competition. These characteristics limit the scope of incorporating advanced cybersecurity features into IoT devices [5]. The accelerated growth, the massive worth of the market, the reward of accessing interconnected nodes, and existing vulnerabilities make IoT an attractive…
