Cybersecurity in the Age of AI, IoT, and Edge Computing
This special issue belongs to the section "Cybersecurity".
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cybersecurity is an essential foundational technology for the stable operation of the IT systems that support modern society. As AI technology becomes increasingly integrated into social systems, attacks targeting AI pose serious risks that could directly impact societal safety. Furthermore, fields such as IoT, edge computing, mobile communication networks, and robotics are core components of future social infrastructure. Protecting these technologies from cyber threats is a prerequisite for building a safe and secure society.
Ensuring that these advanced foundational technologies are cybersecure has become an urgent research challenge and a key strategic issue, not only in academia but also across industry. To safeguard the IT infrastructure that society depends on, advancements in cybersecurity research and its practical application are required.
