The secure operation of critical infrastructures is 8 essential to the security of a nation, its economy, and 9 the public’s health and safety. Security incidents in 10 critical infrastructures can directly lead to a viola11 tion of users’ safety and privacy, physical damages, 12 significant economic impacts for individuals and 13 companies, and threats to human life, while decreas14 ing trust in institutions and bringing their social value 15 into question. Because of the increasing interconnec16 tion between the digital and physical worlds, these 17 infrastructures and services are more critical, sophis18 ticated, and interconnected than ever before. This 19 makes them increasingly vulnerable to attacks, as 20 confirmed by the steady rise of cybersecurity inci21 dents. The consequences of these attacks are almost 22 always invasive and disruptive for the computerized 23 systems and can be fatal if the attacks are performed 24 in the domain of smart health devices. The need 25 therefore arises to research effective security-based 26 solutions for nullifying these risks or countering the 27 attacks. In recent years, this has been suc essfully 28 accomplished using intelligent technologies, includ29 ing artificial intelligence, machine learni g and deep
