Cilt 5 Sayı 1 (2026): Artificial Intelligence for Secure and Intelligent Digital Ecosystems

The rapid evolution of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is fundamentally transforming the design, operation, and security of digital ecosystems. As intelligent technologies become increasingly integrated into critical infrastructures, smart cities, healthcare, education, finance, manufacturing, and connected cyber-physical systems, ensuring security, resilience, trustworthiness, and sustainability has emerged as a global research priority. AI-driven solutions are reshaping how intelligent systems perceive, analyze, predict, and respond to dynamic environments while enabling more autonomous, adaptive, and data-driven decision-making.

This thematic issue aims to provide a multidisciplinary platform for researchers, academics, industry professionals, and practitioners to present innovative theoretical advances, practical applications, and emerging technologies that contribute to the development of secure and intelligent digital ecosystems. The issue welcomes original research addressing the intersection of Artificial Intelligence with cybersecurity, the Internet of Things (IoT), machine learning, deep learning, computer vision, data analytics, intelligent networking, cloud and edge computing, digital transformation, and smart applications.

Contributions exploring AI-powered cyber defense, social cybersecurity, privacy-preserving technologies, explainable and trustworthy AI, intelligent automation, digital entrepreneurship, sustainable smart cities, Industry 5.0, autonomous systems, human-centered AI, and ethical aspects of intelligent technologies are particularly encouraged. Studies integrating AI with real-world applications that enhance security, efficiency, resilience, and societal well-being are also within the scope of this issue.
