Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, Internet-of-Vehicles has been growing exponentially, with vehicles being an active part of a large communication and connection community that also includes people (e.g., pedestrians), technological devices, and infrastructure. IoV, which is a core part of large, intelligent, and distributed transportation systems, is heavily based on the acquisition, exploitation, and sharing of information through Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication channels (e.g., V2V, V2M, V2P, V2D, V2I) leading to significant security and privacy challenges that may lead even to human safety risks. This Special Issue aims at presenting leading research that focuses on addressing and raising awareness of cybersecurity challenges (e.g., threat detection and attribution, privacy preservation, trust management) raised in the multidimensional environment of Internet-of-Vehicles, in an effort to highlight the latest developments in the field. We encourage the submission of research papers that present theoretical and/or experimental contributions, as well as visionary contributions that discuss research trends and future perspectives in the field. Papers should present original work that includes robust analysis or experimental validation of proposed models.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
- Cybersecurity frameworks of IoV
- Response and recovery of cyberthreats in IoV
- Privacy preservation in IoV
- Trust and reputation in IoV
- Secure routing in IoV
- Security and privacy-preservation of V2X communications
- Security in cloud-based IoV
- Access control in IoV
- Vulnerability scanning technologies for IoV
- Intrusion detection technologies for IoV
- Blockchain in IoV
- Accountability in IoV
- Thread Profiling and Information Sharing in IoV
- Vehicle collision prediction and avoidance in IoV
- Digital Forensics for IoV
- Usable Security in IoV
- Cyberthreat detection
- Cyberthreat attribution
- Visualization of cyberthreats
- Real-time cybersecurity monitoring of IoV entities

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.
