Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The fast development of the Internet of Things (IoT) has involved enormous evolutions of IoT-empowered smart systems and applications via diverse networks, remote sensors, and endpoint appliances. IoT network security is critical, largely because of the expanded attack surface of threats from vulnerabilities, malware, escalated cyberattacks, information theft and unknown exposure, device mismanagement, and misconfiguration, which are already plaguing networks. It is through the digital control of physical processing in the network that the security of the Internet of Things is no longer limited to basic security principles such as confidentiality, integrity, and non-repudiation. Network security also needs to include security protection for physical resources that receive information in the real world, as well as for various physical devices.

Therefore, this Special Issue aims to collect original research and review articles on recent advances, technologies, solutions, applications, and new challenges in the field of IoT security.

Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Trust theories and algorithms for IoT sensing networks;
  • Quantum communication and quantum computing for IoT network security;
  • Post-quantum cryptography and algorithms for IoT network security;
  • Decentralized computing and collaborative learning for IoT network security;
  • Machine/deep learning for IoT network security;
  • AI-based data analytics for IoT network security;
  • Blockchain-related applications for IoT network security.

Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Sensors is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
