Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
These days, a one-way function or a hard mathematical problem is no longer sufficient for designing a cryptosystem. Modern cryptography is supported by several other sciences and technologies, including information theory, artificial intelligence (AI), coding theory, hardware technology, quantum computing, combinatorics, Boolean functions, etc.
We are happy to announce MDPI Cryptography’s new Special Issue entitled “Interdisciplinary Cryptography”. We invite researchers to submit their reviews and novel research papers related to cryptography supported by other sciences and technologies. The scope of the Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, the following topics and areas.
- Information-theoretic cryptography;
- AI-assisted cryptography;
- Hardware-assisted cryptography;
- Quantum cryptography;
- Post-quantum Cryptography
- Code-based cryptography;
- Combinatorial cryptography;
- Cryptographic Boolean functions.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Cryptography is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
