ABSTRACT

We are currently in a post-pandemic era, in which life has shifted to a digital format. This has affected many aspects of life, including education and learning. Education 5.0 is a term that refers to the use of digital technologies to eliminate barriers to learning, enhance learning methods, and promote overall well-being. The concept of Education 5.0 represents a new paradigm in the field of education, one that is focused on creating a learner-centric environment that leverages the latest technologies and teaching methods. However, the enabling of digital technology integration poses a massive security risk owing to the constrained abilities of low-powered embedded resources. This chapter explores the key requirements of Education 5.0 and the enabling technologies that make it possible, including artificial intelligence, blockchain, and virtual and augmented reality, and proposes strategies for addressing cybersecurity issues in terms of various attacks that can affect the fairness of education.
