SKE2SG: A Secure Key Establishment Scheme for Smart Grid Cyber‐Physical Systems Based on Elliptic Curve Cryptography

IET Cyber-Physical Systems: Theory &Applications, Volume 11, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
Recent proposals by Mahmood et al., Braeken et al., and Chaudhry et al. aimed at establishing secure communication in AMI, asserting their methods fulfil the requisite security criteria. This paper, however, reveals that each of these proposals exhibits security vulnerabilities and lacks sufficient features for deployment.

Delay‐Scheduled Adaptive Observer Control Strategy for Nonlinear Systems With Time‐Varying Delays

IET Control Theory &Applications, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This paper proposes a delay‐scheduled adaptive observer controller for nonlinear systems with unknown time‐varying delays and bounded disturbances. By integrating an adaptive observer with an LMI‐based state‐feedback controller, the method ensures robust stability and H∞$H_\infty$ performance. Numerical simulations on delayed Lorenz and hyperchaotic Lü

Securing Machine‐Type Communications: A Survey on Privacy Threats and Countermeasures

IET Information Security, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Machine‐type communication (MTC) is a fundamental enabler of the Internet of Things (IoT) and emerging 5G/6G networks, supporting massive deployments of heterogeneous and resource‐constrained devices. However, large‐scale data collection, persistent connectivity, and limited device capabilities introduce critical privacy challenges that are not ...

Cybersecurity Driven Quantum Digital Twin for Proactive Threat Reversal in Open RAN

IET Quantum Communication, Volume 7, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This paper presents a novel cybersecurity‐driven quantum digital twin (CQDT) architecture for proactive defence in 6G Open RAN. By integrating quantum observables and reinforcement learning, the framework maintains high fidelity and suppresses entropy under adversarial CPTP noise. CQDT achieves real‐time adaptation with sub‐20 ms latency, meeting URLLC

Resisting Quantum Key Distribution Attacks Using Quantum Machine Learning

IET Quantum Communication, Volume 7, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
Quantum key distribution (QKD) promises secure communication but remains vulnerable to advanced quantum attacks. We propose a hybrid quantum long short‐term memory (QLSTM) model that combines quantum‐enhanced learning with classical deep learning to detect attacks such as photon‐number splitting, Trojan‐Horse and detector blinding.

Device‐Independent Quantum Key Distribution: Protocols, Quantum Games and Security

IET Quantum Communication, Volume 7, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
Device‐independent quantum key distribution (DIQKD) removes the need to trust internal device behaviour by certifying security through Bell‐inequality violations, thereby closing practical loopholes in conventional QKD. This paper systematically reviews DIQKD foundations (Bell tests and security definitions), protocol frameworks (CHSH‐based and ...

AI‐Powered Defense: Leveraging Deep Learning for Effective Malware Detection

Applied Computational Intelligence and Soft Computing, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Traditional malware detection techniques frequently fail to detect and stop malicious activity in an era where cyber threats are becoming more complex. Any software that enters a computer system without the administrator’s consent is considered malicious software.
