Abstract

IoT devices are increasingly present in our lives, and today constitute a strong pillar for designing smart systems that perceive the environment and intervene in it according to predefined rules. This ability to interact with the environment has historically been the target of cyberattacks, causing erratic behavior in these systems, which brings serious consequences. This work introduces Secure Actuator Node, a pattern that addresses the design of a secure actuator that considers the identification of threats and their respective countermeasures to mitigate or eliminate these types of security issues.
