These systems can increase quality of life for everyone, transform mobility, raise productivity, reduce cost, improve resource use, and enhance human safety. The technology enabling autonomous systems is advancing at pace, from self-driving cars and nuclear maintenance robots to drug delivery and diagnostics, long-distance shipping and protection from cyberattacks. Automation can be used to operate Cyber-physical Systems of Systems (CPSoSs) comprising complex, multi-faceted and dynamic virtual and physical resources, with minimal or reduced human intervention. However, even when the most advanced degree of autonomy is exercised, the human is a variable that cannot and should not be left out of the CPSoSs equation, especially in safety critical scenarios.

The maritime sector is for sure one of the examples that have not yet faced the most significant changes but is currently under radical adjustments for several reasons. The energy consumption, the scrubbers, the oil price, and the ship legacy systems to name but a few, as well as the massive need of logistics and transportation of goods globally during the pandemic era, turn the attention of transformation forces of small, medium and big enterprises into the shipping industry.

This evolution of social media has bloomed in a plethora of social media users and applications that produced innovative and efficient intelligent techniques for data processing in fields like pattern recognition, information fusion, knowledge discovery and data visualization, making it easier to exploit for research and business purposes.

As digitalization becomes a primary business issue for many organizations around the world and the fourth Industrial revolution marks an era of enormous potential for innovation and growth, the manufacturing sector witnesses an increase in cyber-related incidents. Operational and information technology are more connected now than ever, and this makes Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) more vulnerable to cyber-attacks.
