Internet of Things (IoT) has come a long way since its inception. However, the standardization process in IoT systems for a secure IoT solution is still in its early days. Numerous quality review articles have been contributed by researchers on existing frameworks, architectures, as well as the threats to IoT on different layers. However, most of the existing work neglects the security aspects of firmware in the IoT ecosystem. As such, there is a lack of comprehensive survey on IoT firmware sec...

Orthogonal frequency-division multi-access (OFDMA) systems have limited flexibility to improve efficiency due to their dependency on subcarrier orthogonality. As a result of this restriction, attention has shifted to a new multi-access communication method. The popularity of non-orthogonal multi-access (NOMA) systems is growing. Because the NOMA systems may broadcast and receive signals at various power levels, more complicated reception devices are required. Partially overlapped subcarriers or...

Although cyber technologies benefit our society, there are also some related cybersecurity risks. For example, cybercriminals may exploit vulnerabilities in people, processes, and technologies during trying times, such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, to identify opportunities that target vulnerable individuals, organizations (e.g., medical facilities), and systems. In this paper, we examine the various cyberthreats associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. We also determine the attack vectors an...
