Abstract

The increasing interconnectivity brought by the Internet of Things (IoT), cloud computing, and Industry 4.0 has significantly amplified cybersecurity risks across multiple sectors, including healthcare, automotive, and smart manufacturing. Traditional cybersecurity solutions, largely static and signature-based, are inadequate against the sophisticated and rapidly evolving nature of modern cyber threats. This paper investigates the integration of artificial intelligence (AI)-driven adaptive cybersecurity frameworks capable of dynamic threat detection and mitigation across heterogeneous environments. By synthesizing existing literature on secure software development, functional safety, cybersecurity standards (ISO 26262, ISO/SAE 21434), and ontology-based IoT security models, we highlight the gaps in current methodologies, particularly in real-world adaptability and interoperability. We propose a holistic AI-enhanced cybersecurity approach that combines machine learning, real-time monitoring, and automated response mechanisms tailored for IoT, cloud infrastructures, and smart factories. Additionally, we emphasize the importance of scalable cyber ranges for training and the need for interdisciplinary cybersecurity education to develop a resilient workforce. Future work should focus on implementing digital twin simulations, developing unified safety-security frameworks, and creating country-specific policies to fortify digital infrastructures against emerging threats.
