Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The purpose of this Special Issue is to present the latest research results in the field of cybersecurity and IoT systems. We encourage the publication of original research and review articles on various aspects of IoT and cybersecurity. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the design and implementation of secure IoT systems, the application of machine learning and artificial intelligence to IoT security, privacy issues in IoT, and the development of new IoT security protocols and standards. In addition, other related topics such as IoT security architectures, protocols and standards, IoT security assessment, testing and verification, IoT security management, monitoring and auditing, IoT security analytics, forensics and incident response, IoT security applications and case studies in various fields such as smart cities, healthcare, transportation, and energy, and IoT security challenges and opportunities in emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, edge computing, and 5G are also welcome.
In this Special Issue, we encourage submissions of articles that propose innovative solutions to enhance IoT device and network security, mitigate threats, and protect user privacy. Research that provides insight into the current state of IoT security is also welcome.
The goal of this publication is to provide the knowledge necessary to address cybersecurity challenges, while enabling readers to take advantage of the opportunities offered by IoT technologies.
