Abstract: Purpose - This study aims to assess the research developments and works pertaining to cybersecurity risks. Design/methodology/approach - A bibliometric analysis of 749 studies on cybersecurity risks published between 1999 and 2021 was conducted using Scopus and the VOSviewer software. Findings - This study reveals various findings, including the most influential authors and the top countries, journals, papers, funding institutions and affiliations publishing research on cybersecurity risks. The bibliometric analysis shows that the existing studies have affected the knowledge of the consequences of cybersecurity risks. However, some research gaps still exist in this field. Originality/value - This study’s contribution is that it presents a comprehensive evaluation of the research on cybercrime and cybersecurity risks. Moreover, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, bibliometric analysis has not been conducted on cybersecurity risks. This study’s findings are likely to prove useful to practitioners and academics in mitigating the consequences of cybercrime and cybersecurity risks.
