Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As the adoption of IoT devices and wireless networks continues to skyrocket, new cybersecurity challenges have arisen, demanding innovative solutions to ensure robust security and privacy.
This Special Issue, titled "Innovative Approaches to Cybersecurity for IoT and Wireless Networks", focuses on recent advancements, novel methodologies, and pioneering technologies applied in IoT and wireless cybersecurity. It will delve into topics such as AI in cybersecurity, quantum-free developments, blockchain applications for secure distributed data, secure IoT and wireless network architectures, attack technologies and adversarial behaviours in IoT and wireless networks, and privacy-preserving techniques for distributed systems. In particular, we will examine the practical implications of these innovative approaches, discussing their effectiveness, limitations, and potential for enhancing real-world systems.
We invite authors to submit original research, comprehensive reviews, and insightful perspectives. We aim to foster robust dialogue on the cutting-edge methodologies being developed to safeguard wireless networks and IoT devices against cyber threats.
We believe that this Special Issue will serve as a critical resource for anyone interested in the convergence of IoT, sensor technology, and cybersecurity, offering valuable insights into the current state of security in distributed systems and the pioneering strategies being developed to fortify them.
