Field Deployment and Resiliency Validation of Zero-Trust Sensor Mesh Networks in Industrial IoT Facilities
Case Study on a 10,000-Node Oil & Gas Refinery Infrastructure
Abstract
Critical industrial infrastructure requires uninterrupted telemetry and stringent anomaly detection against adversarial cyber-physical tampering. We detail the five-year field architecture and empirical security evaluation of an authenticated zero-trust mesh sensor deployment spanning an operational oil refinery comprising over 10,000 connected telemetry points.
