Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cloud, IoT (Internet of Things), and large-scale data security have become critically important in the current technology space. The dynamic provisioning of resources, large scale data processing and pay per use facility with the cloud computing, possibility to interconnect anything and everything with IoT and the ability to manage end to end communication with SDN (Software-Defined Networking) and NFV (Network function virtualization) opens several opportunities for creative thinking and introducing new services. However this also brings new security challenges. The purpose of this Special Issue on “Cloud, IoT and Software-Defined Networks Security” is to explore the state-of-the-art research and innovative security techniques, solutions and case studies for securing Internet of Things based systems and cloud services and data, with new networking paradigms, such as software defined networks and network function virtualisation techniques.
Some topics of interest include the following areas, though they are not limited to these:
Topics:
- Cloud Security Architecture
- Cloud Data Security
- Trust Management in Cloud
- Virtualisation Security
- Forensics Analysis for Cloud
- Verifiable Outsourced Cloud Computation
- Security management for SDN- and NFV-based systems
- Security in Edge Computing Infrastructures
- Security Management of software-defined datacentres
- Dynamic resource scaling based on user mobility
- Policy based management in SDN or NFV systems
- Security, privacy, and trust in Cloud/IoT/SDN
- Cloud Security for IoT Applications
- Security in Smart Homes and Smart Cities
- Security in IoT-based Healthcare
