Advanced Security Protection Mechanism in Networks
This special issue belongs to the section “Networks“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Various network infrastructures for 4th industrial revolution have been developed and incorporated into our daily lives. In particular, with the recent development of emerging technologies such as edge computing, blockchain, and artificial intelligence, new types of network mechanisms, protocols, and structures are being proposed. Hence, it is required to design advanced mechanisms for securing and protecting sensitive information in modern network systems. Obviously, to ensure better performance in security protection, it is required to improve existing mechanisms by employing the-state-of-the-art technologies such as artificial intelligence, deep learning, and blockchain.
This Special Issue seeks recent results for advanced security protection mechanisms in networks. Submissions should present advances in the theory, design, implementation or analysis of the attack, defense, protection, and verification of recent types of network systems. Technical articles are welcome, but these should be of general interest to an engineering audience.
