Abstract
Digital Twin (DT) impacts significantly to both industries and research. It has emerged as a promising technology enabling us to add value to our lives and society. DT enables us to virtualize any physical systems and observe real-time dynamics of their status, processes, and functions by using the data obtained from the physical counterpart. This paper attempts to explore a new direction to enhance cyber resilience in the perspective of cybersecurity and Digital Twins. We enumerate definitions of the Digital Twin concept to introduce readers to this disruptive concept. We then explore the existing literature to develop a holistic analysis of the DT’s integration into cybersecurity. Our research questions develop a novel roadmap for a promising direction of research, which is worth exploring in the future and is validated by an extensive and systematic survey of recent works. Our research has aimed to properly illustrate the current research state in this area and can benefit both community and industry to further the integration of Digital Twins into Cybersecurity.
