Abstract

The adoption of technology in higher education has transformed the landscape of learning services, offering enhanced access and flexibility to students. However, this evolution has introduced new cybersecurity risks, particularly for higher education institutions (HEIs) in developing and emerging countries. This paper adopts a critical scoping review approach to identify published studies on cybersecurity risks and strategies in learning services of HEIs in developing and emerging countries for the period 2014 to 2024. The review highlights the pervasive nature of cybersecurity risks in HEIs, driven by factors such as inadequate resources, outdated systems, and insufficient training. Effective strategies recommended to mitigate these risks include implementing international standards, enhancing cybersecurity education, and developing robust policies. However, significant research gaps remain, particularly regarding the long-term impact of these strategies and the contextual factors of HEIs in these countries. Future research should focus on addressing these gaps, providing a comprehensive understanding of cybersecurity in educational institutions globally.
