Abstract

With the growing use of integrated, web-based technology, there is need for an in-depth understanding of cybersecurity for risk mitigation and how to govern private information held within firms. The researchers explore the current state of literature that focuses on digital governance and cybersecurity. Using a bibliometric analysis (publication analysis) of extant literature, the researchers analyzed a dataset of 2,202 articles published on digital governance and cybersecurity from 1999- 2018. An analysis identifies key areas and themes within the existing research and highlights fruitful directions for future research.

Cybersecurity: Current State of Governance Literature
