The accelerated proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm has engendered a paradigm shift in the connectivity and functionality of everyday devices. The emergence of the Extended Internet of Things (XIoT) represents a progressive evolution beyond traditional IoT, enabling an unprecedented interconnection of diverse devices, systems, and environments, fostering a seamlessly integrated and intelligent ecosystem. The amplification of this networked environment has opened up many opportunities across industries, including healthcare, manufacturing, transportation, and smart cities, among others, promising enhanced efficiency, productivity, and user experience.

However, the transformative potential of XIoT is intrinsically tethered to the assurance of robust security management, given the mounting vulnerabilities and complexities introduced by the expanded network architecture. The contemporary technological landscape is riddled with security breaches and data compromises, underscoring the criticality of preemptive and comprehensive security measures in the realm of XIoT. As illustrated by the notorious Mirai botnet attack in 2016, which leveraged compromised IoT devices to orchestrate a large-scale distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) assault, the implications of lax security in the interconnected IoT fabric can be catastrophic, echoing the imperative need for anticipatory security strategies and resilient frameworks in the XIoT domain.
