The increasing complexity of 6G-IoT networks presents challenges in ensuring real-time trust assessment, computational efficiency, and security against adversarial threats. Existing frameworks struggle to dynamically adapt to evolving threats and high-volume data streams, leading to compromised decision reliability. This study proposes TANF (Trustworthy Adaptive Neural Framework), an advanced deep learning-driven trust evaluation system incorporating hierarchical processing, multi-domain trust layers, and Holo-Recursive Memory (HRM) for adaptive optimization. TANF prioritizes high-trust data streams using sensory stream balancing, dynamically allocates resources through task-specific synergy layers, and enhances memory recall by integrating past, present, and predictive state representations. The simulation, conducted in Edge-IIoTset, IoT-23 and CICIDS2017, evaluated trust assessment, computational latency, scalability, and adversarial detection. TANF achieves a precision of 92. 8%, a latency reduction of 34. 5% and a adversarial detection rate of 95. 6%, outperforming ERAI, ROBUST-6G, and IMCS.

Quantum computing offers exceptional computational capabilities, but achieving optimal performance and resource efficiency in practical applications remains challenging. Addressing the gap between theoretical quantum algorithms and their real-world implementation, this study introduces QuantGAN, a novel approach designed to enhance sustainability and security in Internet of Things (IoT) and consumer electronics manufacturing. QuantGAN combines state-of-the-art quantum algorithms and generative adversarial networks (GANs) over a multilayered Digital Twin framework. This enables explicit sustainability risk assessment with quantum computing and latent process optimization via GANs. The Digital Twin, foreseen as an interactive metaverse interface, enables a real time touch-and-go framework. Central modules within GENESIS include a multilayered Digital Twin, quantum risk assessment algorithms, and an AI-driven continuous feedback loop orchestrated by GANs. The simulation environment uses Qiskit on Intel Core i7-10700K CPU with 32 GB RAM using Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. Our experimental results show that QuantGan effectively out performs the existing methods achieving 96.4% accuracy in detecting risk.

The phenomenal increase in the usage of Internet promotes the quality of trust in the scope of the Internet of Things (IoT). Trust is beneficial in the provision of an effective, reliable, scalable, and trustworthy environment to users of the IoT network, where they can share their private information with each other on a secure communication platform. For successful communications among the Internet users, trust is an important factor to provide them with private infrastructures and secure environments, where exchanging data among devices becomes more easy and trustworthy. Therefore, trust management is a backbone for the successful and secure transmission of data among various nodes in a large-scale IoT network. To overcome the security issues, latency, and risk of malicious activities, a lightweight approach is proposed for those nodes in Industrial IoT that cannot maintain security. LightTrust utilizes a centralized trust agent to generate and manage trust certificates that allow nodes to communicate for a specific time without performing trust computations. Trust agents also maintain a trust database to store the current trust degree for the aggregation/propagation purposes. Trust between two nodes is developed by direct observations in terms of compatibility, cooperativeness, and delivery ratio, whereas recommendations are used to develop trust in the context of indirect observations, i.e., experience or previous knowledge. The comparative simulations of the proposed and existing approaches are also performed whereby the results illustrate that the proposed approach efficiently maintains resilience and robust environments.
