Recently, and due to the large diversity of the hackers and attacks, information security algorithms and application have become a crucial need for protecting almost all information transaction applications. Cyber security is an important branch of information security that is applied in computers and networks. This book covers the cyber security branch, and aims to ensemble the up-to-date advances of various topics in cyber security, and reports how organizations can gain competitive advantages by applying the different security techniques in the real-world scenarios. Chapters and studies which couple the intelligence systems and theories with specific cyber security-related problems are cordially invited. Survey articles that emphasize the research and application of cyber security are greatly welcome. The primary target audience for the book includes researchers, scholars, postgraduate students and developers who are interested in cyber security
 research and related issues. The book will provide reviews of the cutting–edge technologies, algorithms, applications and insights for cyber security-based systems. In particular, the book will be a valuable companion, and comprehensive reference for both postgraduate and senior undergraduate students who are taking a course in cyber security. The book will be organized in self-contained chapters to provide greatest reading flexibility.

 Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
    Intrusion Detection Systems
    Assured Information Sharing
    Privacy and Freedom of Expression in Cyberspace
