description The continuous evolvement of IoT networks has introduced significant optimization challenges, particularly in resource management, energy efficiency, and performance enhancement. Most state-of-the-art solutions lack adequate adaptability and runtime cost-efficiency in dynamic 6G-enabled IoT environments. Accordingly, this paper proposes the Trust-centric Economically Optimized 6G-IoT (TEO-IoT) framework, which incorporates an adaptive trust management system based on historical behavior, data integrity, and compliance with security protocols. Additionally, dynamic pricing models, incentive mechanisms, and adaptive routing protocols are integrated into the framework to optimize resource usage in diverse IoT scenarios. TEO-IoT presents an end-to-end solution for security management and network traffic optimization, utilizing advanced algorithms for trust score estimation and anomaly detection. The proposed solution is emulated using the NS-3 network simulator across three datasets: Edge-IIoTset, N-BaIoT, and IoT-23. Results demonstrate that TEO-IoT achieves an optimal resource usage of 92.5% in Edge-IIoTset and reduces power consumption by 15.2% in IoT-23, outperforming state-of-the-art models like IDSOFT and RAT6G.
