The surging needs for the Internet of Things (IoT) are dramatically shifting the network structure and challenging the traditional perimeter security paradigm. To establish secure and trustworthy interoperability among billions of heterogeneous interconnected devices, there is a need for standards defining a common framework. In this standard, a blockchain-based Zero-Trust access control framework is defined. The framework provides a typical implementation model and deployment variations, addressing general security and trust in IoT applications with the inspiration of the emerging Zero-Trust paradigm and blockchain technology. The leverage of blockchain and Zero-Trust discussed could provide reliable interactions among people, things, and applications in the presence of failures and attacks, and improve an IoT system's overall information technology security posture.

Other Activities From This Working Group
Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.
No Active Projects
Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.
No Active Standards
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
No Superseded Standards
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
