Cybersecurity frameworks provide structured approaches for protecting digital, physical, and socio-technical systems from malicious activities and failures. Work in this area spans critical infrastructure and industrial control systems, cyber-physical and robotic platforms, telecommunications and hardware, and emerging domains such as NFTs and biosecurity. Methods include AI-driven intrusion detection, automated vulnerability discovery, side-channel and protocol analysis, insider threat modeling, and authentication and access control schemes, often embedded in holistic, multi-layered, and user-centered models of cyber resilience and crisis response.
