Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Special Issue on "Security and Privacy Protection in Cloud Computing: Trends and Challenges" aims to explore the evolving landscape of cybersecurity within cloud environments. As cloud computing continues to transform how businesses and individuals manage data and applications, ensuring robust security and privacy measures is paramount. This collection will delve into current trends and emerging challenges in securing cloud infrastructures, applications, and data, addressing issues such as data breaches, compliance with regulations like GDPR and CCPA, encryption techniques, identity and access management, and the role of artificial intelligence in enhancing security protocols. By synthesizing insights from both academia and industry, this Special Issue seeks to offer a comprehensive view of the state-of-the-art practices and research advancements in cloud security. The goal is to provide researchers, practitioners, and policymakers with valuable perspectives and strategies to mitigate risks and foster trust in cloud computing environments.
