Abstract

The concept of Cyber–Physical–Social Systems (CPSSs) has emerged as a response to the need to understand the interaction between Cyber–Physical Systems (CPSs) and humans. This shift from CPSs to CPSSs is primarily due to the widespread use of sensor-equipped smart devices that are closely connected to users. CPSSs have been a topic of interest for more than ten years, gaining increasing attention in recent years. The inclusion of human elements in CPS research has presented new challenges, particularly in understanding human dynamics, which adds complexity that has yet to be fully explored. CPSSs are a base class and consist of three basic components (cyberspace, physical space, and social space). We map the components of the metaverse with that of a CPSS, and we show that the metaverse is an implementation of a Cyber–Physical–Social System (CPSS). The metaverse is made up of computer systems with many elements, such as artificial intelligence, computer vision, image processing, mixed reality, augmented reality, and extended reality. It also comprises physical systems, controlled objects, and human interaction. The identification process in CPSSs suffers from weak security, and the authentication problem requires heavy computation. Therefore, we propose a new protocol for secure lightweight authentication in Cyber–Physical–Social Systems (SLACPSSs) to offer secure communication between platform servers and users as well as secure interactions between avatars. We perform a security analysis and compare the proposed protocol to the related previous ones. The analysis shows that the proposed protocol is lightweight and secure.
