This book discusses Artificial Intelligence (AI) and cybersecurity from multiple points of view. The diverse chapters reveal modern trends and challenges related to the use of Artificial Intelligence when considering privacy, cyber-attacks and defense as well as applications from malware detection to radio signal intelligence. The rapid development of technology is evident in our everyday lives. However, underneath it all lies the concern about cybersecurity. We have also witnessed the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) applications that surpass human intellect in specific tasks. The interplay of AI and cybersecurity is becoming increasingly relevant, as AI needs to be assessed from the cybersecurity point of view, and correspondingly, cybersecurity can benefit immensely from the advances in AI. This path will hopefully lead to less human work and more automated detection and classification in the world of cybersecurity.

The quantity, diversity, and sophistication of Internet of Things (IoT) items are rapidly increasing, posing significant issues but also innovative solutions for forensic science. Such systems are becoming increasingly common in public locations, businesses, universities, residences, and other shared offices, producing enormous amounts of data at rapid speeds in a variety of forms. IoT devices can be used as suspects, digital witnesses, or instruments of crime and cyberattacks, posing new investigation problems, forensic issues, security threats, legal concerns, privacy concerns, and ethical dilemmas. A cyberattack on IoT devices might target the device itself or associated systems, particularly vital infrastructure. This book discusses the advancements in IoT and Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) forensics.

The first book on the multi-dimensional resource management for heterogenous communication, computing and caching in 6G. To provide ubiquitous and various services, 6G networks tend to be more comprehensive and multidimensional by integrating current terrestrial networks with space-/air-based information networks and marine information networks; then, heterogeneous network resources, as well as different types of users and data, will be also integrated. Driven by the exponentially growing demands of multimedia data traffic and computation-heavy applications, 6G heterogenous networks are expected to achieve a high QoS with ultra-reliability and low latency. In response, resource allocation has been considered an important factor that can improve 6G performance directly by configuring heterogeneous communication, computing and caching resources effectively and efficiently.
