A Cybersecurity Detection Platform Integrating IOTA DLT and IPFS for Vulnerability Management

Abstract

In response to the Cybersecurity Law, organizations face numerous management and technical requirements. Detection techniques such as vulnerability scanning and penetration testing are employed to identify risks. Addressing these vulnerabilities demands substantial manpower, time, and financial resources. Security concerns also arise during digital file transmission and remediation efforts. This study proposes a security detection platform with step-by-step implementation guidelines, enabling resource-limited units to replicate the setup and address security gaps. It compares detection results between open-source and commercial tools, highlighting key differences and offering remediation strategies. Numerous digital files (e.g., test reports) are generated during testing. To ensure secure storage and sharing, the system integrates IOTA’s distributed ledger and IPFS, generating HASH values and uploading files on-chain to preserve integrity and authenticity. The objective is to deliver a scalable, cost-effective security detection framework that enhances system resilience while minimizing resource consumption.
