Track: Cyber Security

Abstract

The technologies of industry 4.0 such as big data brings challenges since companies will have to deal with a large amount of data that will help to anticipate and solve problems in development, flexibility and organizational efficiency. On the other hand, companies need to create defenses strategies, also known as “cyber security” in order to deal with the cyber-attacks. The objective of this study is to perform a science mapping in the field of study of cyber security in order to discover current topics, authors in the field and create a map of the area of study, identify productive themes with great scientific impact and point challenges, perspectives and suggestion for future works. To perform this science mapping, the SciMAT (Science Mapping Analysis Software Tool) was used. Besides, the VOSviewer was used to analyze co-authorship between countries and authors. The scientific evolution presented 17 clusters whereby the most representative themes are: 'challenges', 'framework' and ‘intrusion detection’. The analysis of the network of the cluster 'challenges' showed the most challenges that researchers are trying to solve such as: ‘privacy’, ‘smart grid’, ‘internet of thing’, ‘systems’, ‘smart cities’, and ‘cloud computing’.
