Towards a Cyberbiosecurity Model in the Eastern Mediterranean Region

Résumé fourni par la source

This paper proposes a conceptual Cyberbiosecurity model (CBS4SDE) tailored to the Eastern Mediterranean Region (E-MED), recognizing the interplay between digital vulnerabilities, fragmented governance, and public health challenges. Drawing from a socio-technical perspective and One Health principles, we highlight organizational and technological gaps in cross-border data sharing, pathogen surveillance, and cybersecurity infrastructure across E-MED countries. By synthesizing regional assessments, global governance frameworks, and empirical literature, the study advocates for a participatory CBS model that integrates stakeholder coordination, interdisciplinary education, and secure digital infrastructures. The model aims to foster trusted data ecosystems, improve outbreak response capabilities, and enable equitable, resilient health systems across the contextually constrained E-MED. This work fills a critical gap in CBS scholarship by contextualizing global strategies for regional implementation, offering scalable frameworks applicable to similarly fragile health ecosystems.
