    The Internet of Things (IoT) has become a fundamental element for digital transformation in industry, boosting efficiency, security, and innovation. This paper presents an IoT architecture designed for real-time monitoring and control of a virtual level station, addressing critical challenges in industrial automation. The level process is simulated using Factory IO and regulated by a control algorithm developed in TIA Portal V16, executed via PLC Sim Advanced. Data is acquired by Node-RED from the PLC and transmitted to an MQTT broker, while a dashboard hosted on Ubidots enables remote access. Historical data of key parameters is recorded to facilitate detailed analysis of process behavior. Its flexible design allows the simulated process to be easily replaced or expanded with additional sensors and parallel processes, providing significant scalability for future applications. Results show a 55ms response time, data transmission with less than 100ms latency (PLC to cloud), and system integrity during network failures. Based on the Industrial Internet Reference Architecture (IIRA), this system provides a replicable framework for Industry 4.0 implementations, particularly in: Digital twin development, safe operator training, and cost-effective modernization of existing systems. © 2026, Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH.

    The rapid expansion of Internet of Things (IoT) deployments has intensified the need for secure and efficient communication mechanisms tailored to resource-constrained devices. Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) is widely adopted due to its lightweight design; however, it lacks native security support, requiring external protection mechanisms that may significantly affect system performance. This paper presents a comprehensive experimental and data-driven evaluation of two security paradigms for MQTT-based IoT networks implemented on ESP32 microcontrollers: transport-layer security using TLS and application-layer encryption based on elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) for key exchange combined with AES symmetric encryption. The analysis jointly evaluates memory utilization, end-to-end latency, energy consumption, and resistance to passive traffic interception under identical experimental conditions. In addition to conventional metric-based comparisons, multivariate statistical analysis and unsupervised learning techniques are employed as exploratory tools to characterize the system-level behavior induced by each security scheme. Results show that Transport Layer Security (TLS) offers stronger confidentiality guarantees at the cost of higher memory overhead, while the ECC–(Advanced Encryption Standard) AES approach significantly reduces memory footprint with moderate latency penalties and comparable energy consumption. Multivariate analysis further reveals that each security mechanism induces a distinct performance regime, providing a compact joint characterization of the security–performance trade-offs across the evaluated configurations.
