In recent years, the Internet of Things (IoT) and enterprise management systems (EMS) have been rapidly growing and applied in advanced Industries. It provides better big data analytics and the most promising computing platforms. Moreover, IoT is transforming into the augmented intelligence of things (AIoT), developing a human-oriented paradigm for enterprises with AI. Still, smart enterprises and industries have additional requirements, such as device and data trust, robust decision-making, communication latency, and secure data storage. However, previous emerging paradigms and approaches did not fully address all of the aforementioned requirements. Therefore, this article proposes a blockchain-based trust management scheme for smart enterprises with augmented intelligence. The blockchain-based device trust authentication mechanism is used at the device connection layer for device authentication in clusters of IoT devices (smart enterprises branch-SEB). Furthermore, the blockchain-based augmented intelligence enabled approach is leveraged for data authentication at the authentication layer. Finally, smart enterprise data are stored in the distributed hash table (DHTs) and decentralized cloud layer with distributed hash table. We evaluated the proposed scheme using qualitative and quantitative analysis and compared it to the existing studies, showing better performance as 40.887-ms computational cost and 1872-bits transactional cost.
