| Abstract | The rapid digital transformation of higher education and the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into Learning Management Systems (LMSs) have expanded institutional cyber risk surfaces. While enterprise cybersecurity emphasizes infrastructure hardening and zero-trust models, LMS-focused scholarship remains dispersed across governance, behavioral, and AI-mediated domains. This study synthesizes peer-reviewed research published between 2020 and 2025 (N = 30) to examine the structural orientation of LMS cybersecurity in higher education. Bibliometric and thematic analyses reveal structural fragmentation and sociotechnical asymmetry: human and governance dimensions dominate, while empirically validated technical controls and AI-driven adaptive defenses remain underdeveloped. AI is primarily framed as an integrity and monitoring tool rather than as a core security mechanism. In response, the study advances the LMS Multilayer Resilience Architecture (LMRA), conceptualizing LMS cybersecurity as a bidirectionally interdependent sociotechnical system integrating governance, behavioral, AI-mediated, and technical layers. Rather than a technical blueprint, LMRA offers a conceptual resilience framework for coordinated cross-layer security. As generative AI and platform dependence intensify, LMS cybersecurity must evolve from isolated defenses toward systemic multilayer resilience. |
