Abstract

Researchers and organizations are becoming increasingly interested in Internet of Things (IoT) cybersecurity and blockchain technology due to its ability to provide solutions to problems of classical centralized architecture. This research approaches the relative locations of a company in the technological network based on patent citations of the IoT cybersecurity and blockchain.
