“…The disparity in cybersecurity readiness among French SMEs is often connected to cultural views toward technology and security, emphasizing the necessity for a culture shift toward proactive cybersecurity engagement [49]. Research indicates that a proactive, imaginative, and security-conscious culture is required to successfully adopt new technologies and implement appropriate cybersecurity measures [50]. Leadership is critical in creating this cultural shift, ensuring employee participation and education on cybersecurity risks and processes.…”

French Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) face a crucial juncture in their path towards digital transformation. They encounter notable obstacles in embracing digital technologies and bolstering cybersecurity measures. This integrative literature review examines the complex relationship between digitalization and cybersecurity, highlighting their importance for enterprises' ongoing competitiveness and operational security. The study is focused on two primary areas: the integration of digital technologies and the establishment of robust cybersecurity frameworks. This review thoroughly examines existing research to offer strategic insights for leaders of French SMEs and IT policymakers. It employs rigorous inclusion and exclusion criteria, detailed data extraction, and comprehensive synthesis to ensure a systematic analysis. The findings emphasize the critical roles of organizational culture and innovation diffusion in shaping the adoption of technology and the implementation of security practices. The review puts forward practical suggestions to address the digital divide, strengthen cybersecurity readiness, and promote a digital environment accessible to all sectors of French SMEs. These recommendations focus on enhancing operational efficiency, minimizing expenses, and fortifying the security framework to bolster a solid national digital transformation. The study's conclusions highlight the significance of these findings for future research and practice, providing a thorough guide for incorporating digital transformation and cybersecurity in the context of French SMEs.

“…The challenges that individuals face when making privacy decisions and the difficulties that developers face when attempting to comply with privacy policies are discussed in [6,100,127,144,167]. Individual behaviour and how privacy awareness can be raised in the context of IoT have been studied and analysed by [8,80,93,113,156,160]. Studies that support privacy awareness by analysing user preferences and reactions to notifications are presented in [1,97,134,135,159].…”

The balance between protecting user privacy while providing cost-effective devices that are functional and usable is a key challenge in the burgeoning Internet of Things (IoT). While in traditional desktop and mobile contexts, the primary user interface is a screen, in IoT devices, screens are rare or very small, invalidating many existing approaches to protecting user privacy. Privacy visualisations are a common approach for assisting users in understanding the privacy implications of web and mobile services. To gain a thorough understanding of IoT privacy, we examine existing web, mobile, and IoT visualisation approaches. Following that, we define five major privacy factors in the IoT context: (i) type, (ii) usage, (iii) storage, (iv) retention period, and (v) access. We then describe notification methods used in various contexts as reported in the literature. We aim to highlight key approaches that developers and researchers can use for creating effective IoT privacy notices that improve user privacy management (awareness and control). Using a toolkit, a use case scenario, and two examples from the literature, we demonstrate how privacy visualisation approaches can be supported in practice.
