In this work, we present a systematic mapping review (SMR) of the most important works in the field of using quantum machine learning (QML) to increase the efficiency of anomaly detection techniques, which depend mainly on ML. After defining and applying the research methodology, the preliminary search results amounted to 240 studies from four databases. According to the exclusion and inclusion reports, we obtained 21 main studies. After reviewing and analyzing the results, the four research questions were answered. The review focused on the development of integration of intrusion detection systems with QML, the characteristics of such integration, increasing the efficiency of ML algorithms, and future research opportunities in this field. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2024.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAnomaly detectionCyberattackIntrusion detection systems (IDSs)Machine learning (ML) cybersecurityQuantum computing (QC)Quantum machine learning (QML)Conference ObjectQ4817991130
