Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled systems are steadily expanding their presence in all facets of industry and consumer lives. They enable regular citizens, consumers, and manufacturers to interact easily with the digital world. A plethora of composing IoT objects has gradually been employed in almost every domain. As their normal operation is becoming critical for society, abnormal behaviour of such system’s composing elements poses significant implications—cyber risks—for their end-users, related to financial loss, privacy violation, critical services outages or even endangering human life.
This Special Issue focuses on various methods and applications of countermeasures for the protection of IoT-enabled ecosystems such as smart homes, smart cities, and smart factories. High-quality and novel research targeting to address problems linked, but not limited to, the heterogeneity and diversity of the “Things”, as well as new lightweight communication protocols appropriate for IoT technology, will be published in this Special Issue. On the topic of IoT Cybersecurity and Data Privacy, we suggest the following subdomains:
- Threat analysis;
- Privacy preservation;
- Digital identity and trust;
- Risk assessment and management;
- Network intrusion detection;
- Applied use cases with open datasets;
- Guidelines and certifications.
