76/data/v1> Bright Information and Communication Technologies
in the 21st
Century
The advancement of information and communication technologies
(ICTs) in the
21st century provides remarkable benefits to society. At the same
time, the
dark sides of ICTs including threats to cybersecurity are also on
the
increase. For example, as a result of cybersecurity breaches,
Equifax was
hacked, which affected over 148 million Americans (Kennedy, 2017)
and the
Facebook security breach exposed over 50 million user accounts
(Isaac and
Frenkel, 2018). Considering the sophistication of ICTs in the 21st
century
and its impact on our economy and national security, researchers
should pay
more attention to investments in preventive cybersecurity
mechanisms (Miaoui
and Boudriga, 2019) to minimize the effect of dark sides of ICTs
use and
investigate bright concepts and approaches to drastically reduce
its
undesirable effects (Lee, 2015; Lee et al., 2020). To respond to
this need,
numerous researchers and practitioners in the Information Systems
community
(e.g., Lee, et al., 2018) have discussed the vision of the Bright
Internet
and contemplated a broad coverage of technical, managerial,
economic, and
policy solutions towards developing global trust building in
computing
environment, with emphasis on preventive cybersecurity (
<http://brightinternet.org/> http://brightinternet.org/).
This call for papers invites original contributions, reflecting
broad areas
of technical and empirical researches to provide managerial and
policy
implications in the areas of bright ICTs and trusted computing.
Researchers
may employ any applicable IS research methods (analytical
modeling,
experiments, case study, computational models, design science,
survey,
etc.). Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the
following:
* Cybersecurity issues currently encountered by countries,
companies,
and individual citizens, and what can be done about these issues?
* The status of global cybersecurity and security governance
* The next generation Internet, and the principles that Bright
Internet should adopt
* Required regulations to establish the goals of Bright Internet
* Novel and useful methodological approaches to establish Bright
Internet
* Novel preventive security mechanisms for deterring anonymous
sources of cyber threat
* Security architecture and protocols for the future Internet
* Critical success factors for market-driven bright cloud networks
* Necessary protocols and technologies to implement Bright
Internet
* Trust and psychological aspects of the Bright internet
* Privacy concerns and privacy preservation in the Bright internet
* Fostering collaboration and innovation through the Bright
internet
* Emerging technologies and their role for promoting trusted
computing
* Best practices for enhancing the concept of Bright internet
* New research propositions, frameworks, theories, and paradigms
surrounding the Bright Internet for the future
