Cybersecurity frameworks for domestic violence survivors: a systematic review of technological solutions and implementation gaps
摘要
Survivors of domestic violence have increasingly been affected by Technology Facilitated Domestic Violence (TFDV) with perpetrators using technology to amplify the coercive control habits that harm victim survivors. Despite the regular update in cybersecurity frameworks like (NIST CSF, ISO 27001, and MITRE ATT&CK), domestic environments have not benefited from these improvements. This leaves domestic violence victims unprotected by the frameworks in the domestic environment we live today. A Systematic Literature review was conducted on 17 peer reviewed journal articles from 2020 to 2025 from a range of Q1 and Q2 publishers closely related to the topic using VOSviewer for bibliometric analysis to map the co-occurrence and link in words. In this review, literature was examined concerned with different forms of Technology Facilitated Domestic Violence (TFDV) while focusing most on the intersection between domestic violence survivor vulnerabilities and cybersecurity. In subsequent steps, existing fybersecurity frameworks for domestic violence applicability were evaluated and a modified intervention framework that suits both personal and domestic environments was proposed. By demonstrating how standardized frameworks can mitigate TFDV risks, this advances interdisciplinary collaboration at the intersection of digital security and survivor advocacy. From this research, the foundation for future research on the implementation of safety techniques in domestic violence response systems is strengthened.
