Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm has revolutionized how objects and devices sense, communicate, and interact across different environments and this has led to massive interconnectivity amongst devices. Mostly, at the center of this network of objects, is data that is exchanged, stored, and processed among connected devices. Driven by the fact that IoT is the major enabler of next-generation ubiquitous and pervasive computing, security and privacy have become key areas of concern. This Special Issue aims to uncover the latest significant knowledge that is based on practical investigations on the security of IoT Infrastructures, cyber-physical protection, and machine learning in IoT approaches that can be used to guarantee the safety of IoT infrastructures. As a result, this Special Issue welcomes relevant contributions from researchers, that offer pertinent solutions on open problems, existing, or future challenges in IoT infrastructures from academia and industry perspectives.
We would like to solicit papers in the following areas:
- Security and privacy solutions in IoT ecosystems
- Machine learning in IoT
- Anomaly detection in IoT systems
- Offensive security techniques in IoT Infrastructures
- Critical infrastructure systems (CIS) protection approaches
- Interactive and federated learning techniques in IoT environments
- Edge and fog protection techniques
- Security metrics for microservices in IoT ecosystems
- Vulnerability and threat detection techniques
- Incident detection and investigation techniques across IoT environments
- Cloud computing security
- Malware analysis and detection in IoT
- Experiments, testbeds, and case studies in IoT infrastructure
- Cyber-physical system (CPS) protection
- IoT forensics
- IoT infrastructure application areas
- Big data security
- AI & Security

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. Infrastructures is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 1800 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.
