Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid advancement of digital technologies has introduced unprecedented challenges in securing data, networks, and Internet of Things (IoT) environments. At the same time, the intersection of advanced cryptographic techniques, secure networking, and the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is revolutionizing the cybersecurity, particularly in healthcare, where security breaches can have life-threatening consequences. To address these risks, cryptography, network security protocols, and IoMT security frameworks play a critical role. This Special Issue seeks to bring together state-of-the-art research and practical solutions that address emerging trends, vulnerabilities, and innovations across these domains.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
