Reference: The Impact of Artificial Intelligence and Cybersecurity on Supply Chains The incorporation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Supply Chains (SC) is transforming operational efficiency with technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), which facilitates real-time analytics, automation, and decision-making processes that are increasingly streamlined. Concurrently, increasing adoption of cryptocurrencies is providing new paradigms for secure, decentralized transactions within supply chain systems. However, these also contribute to the increase in cybersecurity threats. The increased interconnectivity of AI and IoT systems and the use of digital currencies expose supply chains to the risk of cyberattack, data breach, and financial vulnerability. This abstract discusses the transformative impact of AI, IoT, and cryptocurrencies on supply chains while highlighting the critical necessity for robust cybersecurity mechanisms to safeguard operations and ensure business continuity in an increasingly digital landscape
