Abstract

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) paradigm constitutes the connection of uniquely identifiable things to the internet in an industrial context. Besides providing disruptive capabilities for companies, its connectivity and heterogeneous setup makes it vulnerable to external attacks. To properly implement security by design in the IIoT, the underlying business processes must be modelled both IIoT- and security-aware. Business Process Modeling and Notation (BPMN) is a suitable language for this purpose. In order to present the current state of research in this area, this study compares the requirements from practice and research on the basis of the EU security standard IEC62443 and reviews the current state of research in security- and IIoT-aware BPMN extensions. The findings contribute to the structured elaboration of this ambiguous research field while also elucidating the interplay of IIoT and security within BPMN. The derived research gaps constitute an agenda for further research and may guide further research endeavours in enhancing security within the IIoT.
