Abstract
This paper explores the criticality of cybersecurity measures within the realms of IoT and IT systems, emphasizing the integration of resilient architectures to combat the sophisticated array of cyber threats that jeopardize the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of information. It dissects the vulnerabilities inherent in contemporary IoT and IT ecosystems, proposing a layered security approach that marries state-of-the-art encryption, anomaly detection, and security-by-design principles. This research underscores the importance of adaptability, proactive defense mechanisms, and the implementation of comprehensive security policies tailored to the unique challenges posed by the IoT landscape. The findings aim to guide stakeholders in fortifying their networks against escalating cyber threats, ensuring the sustainable and secure expansion of IoT technologies across critical infrastructures.

Keywords
Anomaly detection, Cybersecurity, Encryption, IoT, Resilience, Security-by-Design, Vulnerabilities.
