A Self-Healing Blockchain-Based Digital Twin Framework for Cybersecurity-Aware Fuzzy Multi-Objective Supply Chain Finance Optimization Under Uncertainty
Hamed Nozari, Zornitsa YordanovaThe increasing dependence of financial supply chains on digital infrastructures has made it more necessary to design secure, resilient, and reliable networks than ever before. This research presents a self-healing framework based on blockchain and digital twins for multi-objective fuzzy optimization of financial supply chains under uncertainty. The proposed model, focusing on minimizing financial cost, cyber risk, and recovery time while simultaneously maximizing the level of trust and resilience, enables intelligent decision-making in the face of cyber threats. By combining real-time monitoring, secure transaction validation, fuzzy risk assessment, and automated recovery, the framework identifies the role of each component in maintaining the financial and operational stability of the network. The results showed that the complete model achieved an overall performance score of 0.944 in the component elimination study and increased the level of trust and resilience to 0.95 and 0.96, respectively. The cyber risk index was also maintained at 0.118, indicating the framework’s ability to control threats and maintain network stability. The findings show that the convergence of blockchain, digital twin, fuzzy logic, and self-healing mechanism can provide an effective basis for the development of smart, secure, and resilient financial supply chains.
