Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With accelerated digitization, the amount of data being generated from various environments is rapidly increasing. With this rapid increase in the generation of diverse data, which exceeds a quintillion bytes per day, there is an extreme need for innovative technological advances to ensure their security. Alternatively, the power and knowledge behind the emergent solutions employed to secure data generated in business and academic environments reduce the time to response, facilitating the mitigation of and defense against existing and evolving cybersecurity threats.
This Special Issue focuses on advanced cybersecurity approaches and applications that address threats to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of big data; it also discusses pioneering and emergent solutions that utilize the power of the meteoric rise in big data to analyze and resolve unprecedented security and privacy challenges and malicious threats in diverse environments.
We encourage original submissions from academia and industry on the most recent theoretical and applied advances, with a focus on how big data research fits broader cybersecurity objectives, and vice versa.
Topics of interest may include:
- Security research and threat intelligence;
- Real-time compliance;
- Security monitoring;
- Secure data storage;
- Data privacy;
- Big data cryptography;
- Access control and auditing;
- Intrusion and anomaly detection;
- Spamming and spoofing detection;
- Malware and ransomware detection;
- Software code security;
- Frameworks and architectures for big data security;
- Cloud security;
- Artificial intelligence (AI) security, machine learning, and big data analytics for cybersecurity.
