Abstract

of the articles had to contain a combination of two groups of keywords: Cybersecurity risk E-business and information risk. This research focuses on recently published studies published between 2015 and 2023, including some previous studies. All articles were selected based on two factors: Each article must address a different area of cybersecurity in SMEs only. They must contain an empirical study. Around 69 articles out of 75 were chosen for this paper, but more were excluded due to a lack of empirical methods or unclear methodology. The remaining selected articles were used to proceed to the second and third stages of the study that is the thread analysis, Strong Authentication Mechanism, and related issues. The data analysis methods and main findings of this study are presented, followed by the conclusion and limitations of this research.

Keywords
