Ransomware and Artificial Intelligence: A Comprehensive Systematic Review of Reviews

This study provides a comprehensive synthesis of Artificial Intelligence (AI), especially Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL), in ransomware defense. Using a "review of reviews" methodology based on PRISMA, this paper gathers insights on how AI is transforming ransomware detection, prevention, and mitigation strategies during the past five years (2020-2024). The findings highlight the effectiveness of hybrid models that combine multiple analysis techniques such as code inspection (static analysis) and behavior monitoring during execution (dynamic analysis). The study also explores anomaly detection and early warning mechanisms before encryption to address the increasing complexity of ransomware. In addition, it examines key challenges in ransomware defense, including techniques designed to deceive AI-driven detection systems and the lack of strong and diverse datasets. The results highlight the role of AI in early detection and real-time response systems, improving scalability and resilience. Using a systematic review-of-reviews approach, this study consolidates insights from multiple review articles, identifies effective AI models, and bridges theory with practice to support collaboration among academia, industry, and policymakers. Future research directions and practical recommendations for cybersecurity practitioners are also discussed. Finally, this paper proposes a roadmap for advancing AI-driven countermeasures to protect critical systems and infrastructures against evolving ransomware threats.

Comparative Simulation of Phishing Attacks on a Critical Information Infrastructure Organization: An Empirical Study

Nowadays, cybersecurity is crucial. Therefore, cybersecurity awareness should be a concern for businesses, particularly critical infrastructure organizations. The results of this study, using simulated phishing attacks, indicate that in the first attempt, workers of a Thai railway firm received a phony email purporting to inform recipients of a special deal from a reputable retailer of IT equipment. The findings showed that 10.9% of the 735 workers fell for the scam. This demonstrates a good level of awareness regarding cyber dangers. The workers who were duped by the initial attack received awareness training. Next, a second attempt was carried out. This time, the strategy was for the workers to change their passwords through an email notification from the fake IT staff. According to the findings, 1.4% of the workers fell victim to both attacks (different email content), and a further 8.0% of the workers who did not fall victim to the first attack were deceived. Furthermore, after the statistical analysis, it was confirmed that there is a difference in the relationship between the workers and the two phishing attack simulations using different content. As a result, this study has demonstrated that different types of content can affect levels of awareness.

Exploring 5G Network Performance: Comparison of Inner and Outer City Areas in Phetchaburi Province

The advancement of 5G technology has transformed various aspects of life, including tourism, by enabling people worldwide to communicate and travel with ease. Traveling to different places and countries is now seamless, removing language barriers and facilitating easy access to information on culture, accommodation, and tourist attractions. Additionally, access to applications that facilitate quicker language translation further enhances the travel experience. Phetchaburi Province holds significant importance as a global tourist destination. UNESCO has recognized Phetchaburi as a member of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network (UCCN), comprising one of 49 cities worldwide acknowledged for their creative city initiatives. Phetchaburi Province stands as the 5th city in Thailand to receive this designation. This research investigated 5G performance in Phetchaburi Province, both the inner and outer city, focusing on download and upload speeds. The results indicate that there is widespread 5G coverage throughout Phetchaburi Province, including urban and rural areas, especially for the 5G network with a good performance provided by one of the mobile network operators. In addition, the statistical analysis reveals differences in 5G performances between the inner city and the outer city of Phetchaburi Province, particularly for download speeds (p-value < 0.001).

QoE Modeling Associated with QoS Impairment Parameters in 5G Networks

This paper aims to propose the quality of experience (QoE) models based on the expectation and/or the perception of 5G users to evaluate for mean opinion score (MOS) for real-time or interactive services/applications with high reliability. Therefore, Based on the fundamental QoE concept, the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) decision making technique has been applied.

Analyzing Bank Account Information of Nominees and Scammers

Nowadays, people heavily rely on the Internet for various activities, such as e-commerce (e.g., online shopping) and online banking. While online transactions are practical, they also provide scammers with a new way to exploit unsuspecting individuals. This study and investigation utilized data from ChaladOhn, a website designed and developed by academics and policemen. The data covered the period from February 2022 to January 2023. After analyzing and investigating, the results reveal that the total losses amounted to over 3,100 million Thai Baht, with each case incurring losses of less than 10 million. Furthermore, the investigation discovered the involvement of the top two banks in the market, KB*** and BB*, in the fraud. These banks accounted for: 1) 28.2% and 16.0% of the total number of scam accounts, 2) 25.6% and 20.5% of the total transactions, and 3) 35.7% and 14.9% of the total losses from the victims as recorded in the database, respectively. Considering the anticipated deterioration of this issue, it is crucial to inform regulators and relevant organizations about the investigation's findings. This will enable the development, suggestion, and implementation of an efficient solution to address the rapidly increasing number of online scam cases.
