In recent years, the integration of the Social Internet of Things (SIoT) into the Internet of Things (IoT) has gained considerable attention, leading to a vast network of interconnected everyday objects. These objects generate a wealth of data that can provide valuable insights into our daily needs. Context-aware systems have emerged as intelligent systems that assist users in making service consumption choices based on their contextual information and preferences. However, the development of a context-aware trust management framework in SIoT faces a significant challenge due to the limited availability of dynamic and reliable context information from the objects users interact within their environments. To overcome this challenge, it is proposed to use contextual information obtained from IoT objects and other sources to construct a framework that establishes connections between the core modules of a SIoT …

This study compares the National Cybersecurity Strategies (NCSSs) of publicly available documents of ten nations across Europe (United Kingdom, France, Lithuania, Estonia, Spain, and Norway), Asia-Pacific (Singapore and Australia), and the American region (the United States of America and Canada). The study observed that there is not a unified understanding of the term "Cybersecurity"; however, a common trajectory of the NCSSs shows that the fight against cybercrime is a joint effort among various stakeholders, hence the need for strong international cooperation. Using a comparative structure and an NCSS framework, the research finds similarities in protecting critical assets, commitment to research and development, and improved national and international collaboration. The study finds that the lack of a unified underlying cybersecurity framework leads to a disparity in the structure and contents of the strategies. The strengths and weaknesses of the NCSSs from the research can benefit countries planning to develop or update their cybersecurity strategies. The study gives recommendations that strategy developers can consider when developing an NCSS.
