To address these challenges, this study proposes a Digital Twin-Enhanced Cybersecurity Framework (DT-CF) tailored for healthcare IoT systems within Industry 4.0 environments. The DT-CF employs real-time digital twins to generate synchronised replicas of physical devices (e.g., smart infusion pumps, wearable sensors), enabling continuous monitoring and predictive anomaly detection through machine learning models. The framework integrates Hyperledger Fabric blockchain and smart contracts to enforce secure access control and ensure data integrity. A conceptual case study, designed to mirror the operational dynamics of a modern healthcare facility, is presented to illustrate the framework’s practical applicability, highlighting its potential to enhance system reliability and support automated threat mitigation. Key contributions include a scalable DT-CF architecture, AI-driven analytics, and a step-by-step implementation guide for deploying context-aware digital twins in clinical environments. By bridging real-time physical–virtual synchronisation with proactive cybersecurity measures, the DT-CF offers a resilient and transparent solution to safeguard sensitive patient data and critical healthcare infrastructure.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101213,"journal":{"name":"Telematics and Informatics Reports","volume":"20 ","pages":"Article 100254"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145222209","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, conventional screening approaches are intrusive and inaccessible to women, especially in resource-constrained settings. While applying machine learning in cervical cancer diagnosis has the potential to enhance screening rates, privacy and inclusion, results from existing works indicate a wide disparity in approaches. In this work, a systematic review of literature was conducted to highlight gaps in literature in relation to the application of machine learning for cervical cancer diagnosis from risk factors. Existing reviews on cervical cancer diagnosis have focused on image datasets and have only considered suitable Machine Learning algorithms, their performance, and features in the datasets used. Little emphasis has been paid to data preprocessing, model implementation and usability testing. In this work, four scholarly databases, namely Scopus, ScienceDirect, PubMed, and BioMedCentral (BMC), were queried using a combination of relevant keywords. Twenty-seven (27) original journal articles written in English and published between January 2014 and January 2024 were retrieved and included in the study. Results indicate that 88.9% of the studied works have used a single dataset-pointing to data sharing challenges. Only one work (3.7%) has done comprehensive data preprocessing; the rest have done partial or no data preprocessing. While Sub-Saharan Africa bears the largest cervical cancer burden, it has shown minimal involvement in cervical cancer diagnosis using machine learning, with no collaboration among experts and countries. Works have substantially focused on the performance of machine learning models, with the top 5 commonly used algorithms being Decision Tree, Support Vector Machine, Random Forest, and Logistic Regression. The implementation of the models and the assessment of the usability and acceptance of the resulting applications, however, have been neglected in the works. Policies on Machine Learning based disease diagnosis tools should emphasize diversity, equity, and inclusivity on dataset creation, comprehensive and standardized data preprocessing pipelines and prioritize human-centered design, usability testing, and clinical validation to ensure solutions are reliable and acceptable by medical professionals and relevant stakeholders.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101213,"journal":{"name":"Telematics and Informatics Reports","volume":"20 ","pages":"Article 100250"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145099669","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results of this study showed that system quality, information quality, service quality, and user satisfaction play an important role in increasing the intention to use M-Paspor. In addition, user satisfaction was proven to strengthen the intention to use this application. On the other hand, perceived cyber risk was shown to affect the level of trust in government, and this trust, along with the users’ self-efficacy and satisfaction, also affected the intention to use M-Paspor. However, the analysis also found that neither information quality nor the perception of cyber risk had a direct influence on the intention to use the application.

Given the lack of instruments for measuring everyday behaviors, we turn to information literacy instruments as they encompass the skills used to support these behaviors. Often such instruments are tested with tertiary (university and post-secondary) student populations and focus on academic information behaviors. Academic information behaviors take place in conjunction with everyday information behaviors but are different to one another. Further, the instruments do not account for transnational information behaviors even though international students travel across countries and cultures to pursue higher education. Our study addresses these gaps by developing a survey instrument based on existing information behavior models and information literacy competencies. We collect data from 202 tertiary students studying at universities in Victoria, Australia. Following data collection, we run a factor analysis to validate the instrument and understand what factors shape the phenomenon of everyday information behaviors. Our factor analysis reveals eight factors. The factors indicate that interactions with disagreeable information are separate from those with useful information. They also show that transnational information behaviors are part of the everyday. Our prototype instrument is an important contribution to the literature and the factors will be valuable to future researchers studying everyday information behaviors.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101213,"journal":{"name":"Telematics and Informatics Reports","volume":"19 ","pages":"Article 100238"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144925157","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Effective defense requires not only high accuracy but also real-time performance and transparent decision-making, a combination that challenges conventional security solutions. To address these challenges, a novel framework is introduced for real-time DDoS detection. It integrates a hybrid ensemble feature selection pipeline, combining statistical analysis with metaheuristic algorithms (GA, ACO, PSO, Aquila, GWO) to isolate the most critical traffic features. The Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) is employed to rectify class imbalance inherent in real-world network data. At the core of the framework, a comparative analysis evaluates the efficacy of deep learning models, with a focus on Kolmogorov–Arnold Networks (KAN) against established architectures like CNN, LSTM, and GRU. For model transparency and to foster operator trust, Explainable AI (XAI) techniques, specifically SHAP and LIME, are integrated to interpret detection results. The system’s performance is rigorously validated on public benchmark datasets (CICIDS2017, CICIDS2018, CICDDoS2019) and a custom dataset generated within a realistic OpenStack simulation environment. Results demonstrate that the KAN-based model significantly outperforms its counterparts, achieving superior detection accuracy while maintaining the lowest inference latency, confirming its suitability for real-time defense. Furthermore, the XAI component successfully provides clear, actionable insights into the model’s decision-making process, enhancing the framework’s overall reliability for modern cloud security operations.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101213,"journal":{"name":"Telematics and Informatics Reports","volume":"19 ","pages":"Article 100242"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144925164","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
