Software Applications Programming and Data Security

Dear Colleagues,

There are numerous current scientific challenges in the field of software development architectures and programming technologies. Theoretical and practical aspects of data security are also an important part of information and communication technologies.

This Special Issue addresses various aspects of the software development process, including its specific phases and activities. It also explores topics beyond process structure, such as automation, tool support, management, data analysis, and decision-making aids. This Special Issue aims to showcase theoretical advancements and their practical applications.

This Special Issue aims to present methods and tools in software engineering related to developing secure software applications and preventing malicious activities in cyber computer systems.

We invite authors to submit original research papers and high-quality review articles on software applications programming, data security, and all topics related to them.
