| Summary: | Summary Edge computing has the capability to process data closer to its point of origin, leading to the development of critical autonomous infrastructures with frequently communicating peers. The proposed work aims to evaluate the effectiveness of security and privacy mechanisms tailored for distributed systems, particularly focusing on scenarios where the nodes are closed‐circuit television (CCTV) systems. Ensuring public safety, object tracking in surveillance systems is a vital responsibility. The workflow has been specifically crafted and simulated for the purpose of weapon detection within public CCTV systems, utilizing sample edge devices. The system's primary objective is to detect any unauthorized use of weapons in public spaces while concurrently ensuring the integrity of video footage for use in criminal investigations. The outcomes of prior research on distributed machine learning (DML) techniques are compared with modified federated machine learning (FML) techniques, specifically designed for being Gossip verifiable and Quantum Safe. The conventional federated averaging algorithm is modified by incorporating the secret sharing principle, coupled with code‐based McEliece cryptosystem. This adaptation is designed to fortify the system against quantum threats. The Gossip data dissemination protocol, executed via custom blockchain atop the distributed network, serves to authenticate and validate the learning model propagated among the peers in the network. It provides additional layer of integrity to the system. Potential threats to the proposed model are analyzed and the efficiency of the work is assessed using formal proofs. The outcomes of the proposed work demonstrate that the trustworthiness and consistency are meticulously preserved for both the model and data within the DML framework on the Edge computing platform. |
