Springer International Journal of Information Security

Special Issue on “IoT Security and Privacy”

The Internet is gradually transforming from a communication platform for

conventional IT appliances into the Internet of Things (IoT),

increasingly interconnecting many assorted devices and sensors. These

devices are generally referred as IoT devices, and many of them are

inexpensive and can be constrained in terms of energy, bandwidth and

memory. The establishment of IoT ecosystems in various domains is

bringing multiple benefits to human users and companies alike. Example

of such domains include Smart Homes, Smart Cities, the Industrial

Internet and even Intelligent Transportation Systems. However, the IoT

as a whole – including related paradigms such as Machine-to-Machine

(M2M) and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) – is susceptible to a multitude

of threats. In fact, many IoT devices currently are insecure and have

many security vulnerabilities. For example, many vulnerable IoT devices

which have been infected with malware have subsequently become comprised

into large botnets, resulting in devastating DDOS attacks. Consequently,

ensuring the security of such IoT ecosystems – before, during, and after

an attack takes place – is a crucial issue for our society at this moment.

 

This special issue aims to collect contributions by leading-edge

researchers from academia and industry, show the latest research results

in the field of IoT security and privacy, and provide valuable

information to researchers as well as practitioners, standards

developers and policymakers. Its aim is to focus on the research

challenges and issues in IoT security. Manuscripts regarding novel

algorithms, architectures, implementations, and experiences are welcome.

 

Topics include but are not limited to:

 

* Secure protocols for IoT devices

* Privacy solutions and privacy helpers for IoT environments

* Trust frameworks and secure/private collaboration mechanisms for IoT

environments

* Secure management and self-healing for IoT environments

* Operative systems security for IoT devices

* Security diagnosis tools for IoT devices

* Threat and vulnerability detection in IoT environments

* Anomaly detection and prevention mechanisms in IoT networks

* Case studies of malware analysis in IoT environments

* IoT forensics and digital evidence

* Testbeds and experimental facilities for IoT security analysis and

research

* Standardization activities for IoT security

* Security and privacy solutions tailored to specific IoT domains and

ecosystems

 

 

Submission Guidelines

-----------------------

 

Authors should prepare their manuscripts according to the “Instructions

for Authors” guidelines outlined at the journal website:

http://www.springer.com/computer/security+and+cryptology/journal/10207

 

Note that the journal sets no page limit, although we encourage authors

to keep their submissions to a length that’s in the ballpark of the

accepted articles (unless there are special reasons to submit something

longer), i.e., less than 30 pages, in order to expedite the review process.

 

All papers will be peer-reviewed, by following a regular reviewing

procedure.
