Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Cryptography is a crucial part of network security. Network security protects communication networks and their data from unauthorised access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction. Cryptography, as a fundamental tool, is used in various aspects of network security to achieve these goals.

This Special Issue of Cryptography is dedicated to exploring recent advances and innovative approaches in network security powered by cryptography, including 5G/6G networks, IoT, and OT.

Specific topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • Cloud computing security;
  • Communication technologies and protocol security;
  • Cryptographic security protocols;
  • Emerging cryptographic techniques;
  • Federate learning;
  • Hashing techniques;
  • Homomorphic encryption in networks;
  • Key distribution and management;
  • Real-time cryptography applications;
  • Trusted heterogeneous networks.
