摘要

Over the last decade, the world has known a rapid transformation driven by the emergence of disruptive technologies, making cybersecurity necessary to maintain robustness. Therefore, urging all sectors for a rapid adoption to ensure sustainability. However, research on the link between cybersecurity and sustainability remains fragmented across the different sectors. In this paper, we present a qualitative mapping study of the literature linking green digitization, cybersecurity and sustainability aiming to organize fragmented research done on various fields and sectors. Using SCOPUS, 20 papers were included in this study. By extracting various fields, sustainability and cybersecurity focus and methods. The results show that each paper focuses on a separate aspect whether its strategic, tactical or operational, showing little to no integration of the organizational decision layers. Based on this we synthesized the findings into a three-level mapping structure, strategic, tactical and operational. Therefore, proposing a framework that links the three dimensions explaining how cybersecurity contributes to a sustainable green digital transformation, offering a clear pathway to practitioners into why, what and how to have a strategic aligned governance ensuring a day-by-day operational system.
