Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid expansion of the Internet of things (IoT) has significantly increased the complexity and vulnerability of cybersecurity landscapes. In this Special Issue, we aim to explore the critical role of artificial intelligence (AI) in enhancing the security of IoT ecosystems. We invite research that delves into innovative AI-driven approaches to safeguarding connected devices and networks.
We encourage submissions that address the intersection of IoT cybersecurity and AI, focusing on, but not limited to, the following areas:
- IoT device security.
- IoT data privacy.
- AI-driven anomaly detection in IoT systems.
- AI techniques for IoT security enhancement.
- AI-powered risk assessment for IoT environments.
- AI-enabled threat intelligence in the IoT.
We look forward to contributions that provide new insights and advancements in applying AI technologies to the field of IoT security.
Dr. Shingo Yamaguchi
