We propose an inverse seesaw scenario under hidden U(1) gauge symmetry, having rather natural hierarchies among neutral fermion mass scales. The hierarchies are derived from theory and experimental constraints. The theory requires Majorana exotic masses have to be induced at one-loop level. The experimental side requests that the Dirac mass terms has to be highly suppressed to satisfy the constraints from the lepton flavor violations (LFVs) such as . In order to induce such a small Majorana exotic masses we introduce exotic fermions and bosons that also provide us additional intriguing phenomenologies such as muon anomalous magnetic moment, dark matter candidate as well as LFVs and deviations in leptonic Z decays. We analyze these phenomenologies including neutrino oscillation data numerically, and show allowed region. Finally, we discuss the DM candidate in both the cases of fermion and scalar boson, where we focus on rather lighter range that is equal or less than 10 GeV. The dominant contributions originate from interactions of hidden gauge sector, and we show allowed ranges for both cases.
