ICT Infrastructures for Cybersecurity

A section of Computers (ISSN 2073-431X).

Section Information

This section focuses on original and new research work in the area of ICT Infrastructures for Cybersecurity. In an era increasingly dependent on digital connectivity, the integrity, resilience, and security of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) infrastructures have become fundamental to societal stability and economic growth. As cyber threats evolve in sophistication and scale, safeguarding critical ICT systems has emerged as a top priority across sectors—from government and finance to healthcare and manufacturing.

This journal section, "ICT Infrastructures for Cybersecurity", explores the latest advancements, challenges, and strategies at the intersection of infrastructure design and cybersecurity. Contributions in this section highlight innovative architectural approaches, secure network protocols, emerging technologies such as post-quantum cryptography and AI-driven threat detection, and case studies from real-world deployments. By examining both foundational and cutting-edge solutions, the articles aim to provide a comprehensive understanding of how robust ICT infrastructures can serve as the backbone of effective cyber defense.

Specific subfields covered by this section include secure network architecture, cloud and edge computing security, software-defined networking (SDN), network function virtualization (NFV), intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDPS), blockchain-based infrastructure security, secure communication protocols, IoT and IIoT security frameworks, threat intelligence sharing, cybersecurity for critical infrastructures, access control and identity management, hardware-based security mechanisms, infrastructure resilience and fault tolerance, cybersecurity risk assessment and mitigation strategies, secure virtualization and containerization, encryption technologies, and the integration of AI and machine learning for infrastructure monitoring and anomaly detection.
