Security, and Privacy in IoT and 6G Sensor Network

Dear Colleagues,

With the 5G network research phase coming to an end and soon to be deployed, 6G networks have become the agenda of many researchers. The 6G network will undoubtedly bring network service to a higher level than those of previous generations.

Security and privacy have been the pillars of the success of mobile networks. In 6G, when the right to Internet access is guaranteed to everyone, the networks will become a gigantic, connected world, with heterogeneous domains of enterprise and telecom networks, virtual and physical, satellites, terrestrial nodes, and so on. The more complicated the networks are, the more risks we face.

The goal of this Special Issue was to promote research in the development of efficient and novel security and privacy designs and enabling techniques by bringing together leading researchers from both industry and academia to present their creative views on the current trends and publish their innovative approaches for addressing various fundamental and practical challenges related to security and privacy in future.
