Over the past decade, advancements in technology have enabled Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) to monitor sensor networks through various methodologies. However, these developments have concurrently introduced significant security challenges, necessitating robust protective measures. As a result, securing CPS has become a critical area of research. This paper reviews existing CPS monitoring models and introduces an innovative role-based monitoring model designed to meet contemporary security requirements. The proposed model is implemented within the COOJA simulator of the Contiki OS and evaluated under three distinct security configurations. Preliminary results demonstrate promising outcomes, although further comprehensive testing is ongoing.
