Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Our society is increasingly dependent on computing services, which are raising security risks that threat actors take advantage of. This scenario can lead to a loss of privacy, physical damage, economic losses, or even endanger our safety. Different verticals, such as Industry 4.0, Smart Cities, and critical infrastructures, are demanding security for networks and information assets available in on-premise, cloud-based, or cloud-native environments.
This Special Issue explores the theoretical foundations and practical applications for improving security and increasing the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of networks and information.
This Special Issue aims to showcase original, high-impact research to protect assets, detect, investigate, and respond to threats by applying cutting-edge methods, techniques, protocols, and technologies on security topics such as:
- Privacy;
- Trust;
- Risk management;
- Forensic analysis;
- Compliance auditing;
- Cryptography;
- Cryptoanalysis;
- Intrusion and anomaly detection;
- Incident response;
- IoT security.
Researchers are encouraged to submit their work to improve network and information security.
