Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Data security and privacy is a primary concern in new computing paradigms such as cloud, edge, and fog technologies, as well as the Internet of Things (IoT). Cryptographic algorithms and protocols play vital roles in delivering powerful and resilient security and privacy guarantees. This Special Issue aims to present the recent developments and emerging trends in the field of Data Security and Privacy Based on Cryptographic Techniques, particularly theories, applications, and security evaluations.
This Special Issue focuses on the advances in cryptographic techniques for protecting data security and privacy. It will publish high-quality, original research and comprehensive survey papers, including but not limited to the following research topics:
- Cryptographic algorithms and protocols;
- Security metrics and models;
- Security threats and attack vectors;
- Secure computing architectures;
- Big data security;
- Blockchain security;
- Data security and privacy in cloud computing;
- Data security and privacy in IoT;
- Applications of cryptographic techniques for protecting data security and privacy;
- General literature and taxonomy.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. 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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
