Nowadays, the serious security threat of industrial control system and sensors has become a major challenge with the rapid development of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack is a very common intrusion method, which will make a great security threat in the application of IIoT. In IIoT scenario, the lightweight safety certification can play a very important role in the development of data-intensive and decentralized applications running on billions of sensors and devices, preserving their security. Therefore, in this paper, a lowlatency high-reliability security mechanism is proposed to avoid the MITM attack in IIoT scenario. First, combining the radio frequency fingerprint (RFF) technology with IIoT applications, a lightweight IIoT security architecture is proposed. Based on the proposed IIoT security architecture, the process of device access authentication and communication service is illustrated. Second, according to the requirement of IIoT identification method, an access authentication method of the device is proposed based on the RFF. The method of feature extraction, classifier designing, and the access authentication process is discussed in detail. Finally, the simulation results show that the identification rate of devices can reach 95% under SNR = 6 dB, and can nearly reach 100% under SNR = 15 dB. Through the new process of access authentication, the access authentication rate can reach 95% under SNR = 15 dB. Therefore, according to the simulation results, the new security mechanisms based on RFF can be used to avoid the MITM attack in IIoT scenario.
