Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Security is never-ending, and the rule regarding its implementation is considered to be “trust no one”. Specifically, it is of utmost importance that the internet be secured using advanced networking system (ANS) protection procedures that help to revolutionize technology and computing systems. The age of artificial intelligence is a pathway paved with the aim of isolating legacy threat detection with the new “prediction” technique. Henceforth, let us ponder the innovation of next-generation strong network systems that can discover threats in advance, with the aim of protecting the world’s security. AINETSEC aims to conceive a Special Issue highlighting the methods by which networking systems can be used as a digital threat countermeasure. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- AI-powered network spike detection: learning models that can sense network threats in advance;
- Reinforced network security: machine-learned self-constructing network systems;
- Next-generation sense systems: learn, predict and act out characteristics and behavior of network threats;
- Case studies on network traffic-based threat effectiveness and countermeasures using AI/ML techniques;
- Network tampering and tamper resistance;
- Creating AI-based network systems to pathway the quantum network;
- Reverse engineering and countermeasures for network threats;
- Creating secured network integrations with higher level software, firmware and microarchitectures.

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. Network 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 1000 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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
