Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The Internet of Things (IoT) has rapidly gained popularity in recent years and has become an integral part of our daily lives. IoT has revolutionized how we interact with technology, from smartphones connected to fitness bands and smartwatches to software applications (apps) that control various household appliances such as thermostats, lights, and security systems. As the IoT continues to grow, data security has become a significant concern. However, deploying effective data security solutions for IoT environments is a complex task due to the anonymization and privatization aspects to be managed.

This Special Issue will publish high-quality and original research articles addressing data security in IoT networks. In particular, research topics will include the definition of data anonymization strategies for anonymizing sensitive data in IoT environments, privatization strategies to privatize data gathered from IoT devices, privacy-preserving strategies for social network data accessed through IoT devices, strategies and methodologies to help users be aware of privacy threats linked to the mismanagement of sensitive data over IoT devices, and prevention/protection policies in IoT devices.
