Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent advances in cybersecurity have significantly enhanced protection mechanisms against cyber threats. This Special Issue in the MDPI Journal of Applied Sciences delves into cutting-edge research and innovative practices across various computer security and cybersecurity aspects. A key focus is enhancing cyber resilience, which aims to fortify systems against attacks and ensure swift recovery from breaches. Furthermore, open-source intelligence (OSINT) is now essential for preemptive threat detection and strategic security planning.
The protection of critical infrastructure is a top priority, as vulnerabilities in these systems can cause severe economic and social consequences. This Special Issue's articles present robust strategies for shielding such infrastructures from sophisticated cyber-attacks. Furthermore, the integration of cybersecurity measures within cyber–physical systems is highlighted, underscoring the importance of securing the interconnected elements that manage physical processes through computer-based algorithms.
The journal's convergence of these themes results in a comprehensive overview of current trends and future directions in the field of computer security. This collection of research provides deep insights into technological advancements and discusses the broader implications of these developments for society and policy-making.
