Abstract
The Internet of Things is an essential component in the growth of an ecosystem that enables quick and precise judgments to be made for communication on the battleground. The usage of the battlefield of things (BoT) is, however, subject to several restrictions for a variety of reasons. There is a potential for instances of replay, data manipulation, breaches of privacy, and other similar occurrences. As a direct result of this, the implementation of a security mechanism to protect the communication that occurs within BoT has turned into an absolute requirement. To this aim, we propose a blockchain‐based solution that is both safe and private for use in communications inside the BoT ecosystem. In addition, research is conducted on the benefits of integrating blockchain technology and cybersecurity into BoT application implementations. This work elaborates on the importance of integrating cybersecurity and blockchain‐based tools, techniques and methodologies for BoT.
