Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cybersecurity has become a critical concern for individuals, organizations, and governments. As technology advances and becomes more sophisticated, the need for effective cybersecurity measures has intensified. One approach that has gained significant attention in the field of cybersecurity is the concept of symmetry and asymmetry; the incorporation of both is deemed essential for developing effective defense strategies against modern threats. While symmetry focuses on building robust security measures, asymmetry allows defenders to leverage their advantages over attackers. By adopting a balanced and comprehensive approach, cybersecurity professionals can enhance their ability to protect individuals, organizations, and governments from cyber threats.
The aim of this Special Issue is to publish articles on the recent advancements in this field, spread across a universe of applications such as industry, robotics, traffic, autonomous vehicle, and blockchain, as well as in fundamental and theoretical forms.
