“…To summarize, as smart devices are growing in number, there is a corresponding growth in risks, both to the user and to the Internet as a whole from hacking threats [54]. However, there is a lack of policy direction, user values on cybersecurity are misunderstood, and there is a lack of clarity as to how IoT public policy should be developed in terms of, for instance, being guided by stakeholder values [10]. Moreover, a new paradigm of proactive antifragility for cyber defense approaches is demanded in the IoT, namely in distributed highly complex computing paradigms beyond traditional cyber defense (e.g., the Internet of Battle Things (IoBT) [9]), in order to cope with novel threats [53].…”

“…The IoT has therefore become prevalent over diverse sectors, with the Internet of Battlefield Things (IoBT) or the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) [3,9], along with its security issues, contributing to an increasing number of cyber-attacks. Consequently, there has been recent concern with cybersecurity in this domain, amid a lack of policy direction and a lack of understanding of user values related to cybersecurity in terms of the IoT, while policy has not been guided by key stakeholder values [10].…”

Nowadays, people live amidst the smart home domain, while there are business opportunities in industrial smart cities and healthcare. However, there are concerns about security. Security is central for IoT systems to protect sensitive data and infrastructure, whilst security issues have become increasingly expensive, in particular in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) domains. Nonetheless, there are some key challenges for dealing with those security issues in IoT domains: Applications operate in distributed environments such as Blockchain, varied smart objects are used, and sensors are limited, as far as machine resources are concerned. In this way, traditional security does not fit in IoT systems. The issue of cybersecurity has become paramount to the Internet of Things (IoT) and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) in mitigating cybersecurity risk for organizations and end users. New cybersecurity technologies/applications present improvements for IoT security management. Nevertheless, there is a gap in the effectiveness of IoT cyber risk solutions. This review article discusses the literature trends around opportunities and threats in cybersecurity for IIoT, by reviewing 70 key articles discovered from a profound Scopus literature survey. It aims to present the current debate around the issue of IIoT rather than suggesting any particular technical solutions to solve network security problems.

PurposeCyberstalking is a growing threat to society, and policymakers should address it utilizing the input of constituents. For this, two key components are required: actionable objectives informed by the values of society and the means of implementation to maximize their potential benefits. The process should be guided by the constituent's values, requiring the elicitation of intrinsic values as individual preferences that are extrapolated to society at large.Design/methodology/approachThe authors utilize Keeney's (1990) public value forum and Sen's (1999) social choice theory (Sen, 1999) to elicit and convert these intrinsic values to serve as the basis for developing public policy to prevent cyberstalking.FindingsThe results demonstrate a strong desire by participants to have clear regulations, policies and procedures developed in concert with industry and enforced by the government that elucidate required protections against cyberstalking in combination with strong technical controls. These policies should guide technical control development and implementation, but leave ultimate control in the hands of technology users to decide what controls they want to utilize.Originality/valueThis study is the first to utilize Keeney's (1988) public value forum in the context of cyberstalking to develop quantitative measures regarding technology users' desired cybersecurity protections against cyberstalking. The authors provide a decision-making framework for policymakers to develop a new policy based on the input of their constituents in a manner that maximizes their potential utility and ultimate benefit.
