“…It was utilized by Shankar et al (2018) to model the crucial success variables for traceability in food logistics systems. The success of cybersecurity risk management in small and medium‐sized firms depends on several elements, including risk awareness, staff training, and organizational culture, which Yeoh et al (2022) identified using the CSF theory. For the examination of port logistics barriers in the era of Industry 4.0 for emerging economies, Sarkar et al (2022) applied CSF theory.…”

Freight transport is critical to the development of the global economy, but it also increases greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. As a result, global challenges, such as climate change, must be addressed. Hydrogen‐fueled transportation could be a viable, sustainable alternative by providing a clean, efficient, and long‐term alternative to fossil fuels, resulting in significantly lower GHG emissions. However, the usage of hydrogen as a fuel is still in its nascent stage, and different nations have initiated strategizing its production and consumption. Understanding the factors that may affect hydrogen's adoption as a fuel in the transportation and logistics sector becomes crucial. The present study attempts to fill this gap by identifying, categorizing, and prioritizing those factors. Initially, the factors have been identified from the literature and further finalized with the consultation with domain experts using the critical success factor theory. Further, relevant factors have been finalized and categorized using exploratory factor analysis. Afterward, the grey–ordinal priority approach is applied to determine the priority weights of the categories and their factors. The findings indicated that operational and environmental are the two most prioritized categories. Specifically, “Substituting Energy Dependency,” “Storage and Infrastructure Costs,” and “Ability to Mitigate Harmful Gases” are the top three prioritized factors for the adoption of hydrogen‐fueled transportation among stakeholders. According to the findings, the management of related businesses can collaborate as a business strategy to develop a robust hydrogen supply chain and secure the market stability of hydrogen fuel to ensure sustainable freight transportation.

“…Cybersecurity is discussed quite extensively in the engineering community and a lot of progress has been achieved in understanding different kinds of threats and suitable responses to them (Yeoh et al, 2022). The need to address threats on different layers has already been made clear (Lee, 2021).…”

“…During the last decade, cybersecurity attacks have increasingly posed a threat to society (Akinbowale et al, 2020; Kaloudi & Li, 2020). Protective measures for organizations are discussed in numerous different domains and include different stakeholders and decision‐makers (Lee, 2021; Yeoh et al, 2022). Recent events such as the COVID‐19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine draw attention to the fact that cybersecurity is just one aspect of a larger challenge to maintain the robustness and resilience of modern societies, (Miceli et al, 2021; Sarkis, 2020).…”

The article studies cybersecurity projects from the perspective of social systems theory. Measures taken to increase cybersecurity are aimed at the robustness and resilience of specific systemic entities in society. We argue that this does not necessarily mean that systems in which these entities are embedded become more robust or resilient. The article investigates the objectives of 20 projects funded by different public organizations to increase cybersecurity of critical infrastructures. The findings show that robustness and resilience are addressed by these projects on different layers of systems in society, without a clear picture of how they are supposed to fit together in a wider effort to protect society against disruption. The detailed analysis of the different facets of robustness and resilience addressed in cybersecurity projects paves the way for a better understanding of this problem. The research shows how organizations may avoid the negative consequences of measures to secure specific systemic entities in society in the case of critical infrastructures, other application scenarios, and digital innovation in general.

“…Despite the vibrant security market and the multidimensional complexities surrounding cybersecurity, a comprehensive cybersecurity Critical Success Factors framework to guide cybersecurity management in organizations still needs to be developed. While some review articles in the literature on cybersecurity success factors [3], [39] focus on issues such as cybersecurity policy, processes, and procedures, for critical infrastructures and information security factors based on existing Frameworks for decisionmaking, [37] summarize 12 factors that influence security decisions: vulnerability, compliance and policy, risk, physical security, continuity, infrastructure, confidentiality, integrity, and availability (CIA), security management, awareness, resources, and access control, and factors organizational.…”

Defining an appropriate cybersecurity incident response model is a critical challenge that all companies face on a daily basis.However, there is not always an adequate answer. This is due to the lack of predictive models based on data (evidence). There is a significant investment in research to identify the main factors that can cause such incidents, always trying to have the most appropriate response and, consequently, enhancing response capacity and success. At the same time, several different methodologies assess the risk management and maturity level of organizations.There is, however, a gap in determining an organization's degree of proactive responsiveness to successfully adopt cybersecurity and an even more significant gap in assessing it from a risk management perspective. This paper proposes a model to evaluate this capacity, a model that intends to evaluate the methodological aspects of an organization and indicates the apparent gaps that can negatively impact the future of the organization in the management of cybersecurity incidents and presents a model that intends to be proactive.
