Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cloud computing is a promising architecture in the current computing systems with many benefits such as collaboration, agility, scalability, availability, cost reduction potential, and computing efficiency. However, there are also some significant barriers to adoption. One of the most significant barriers to adoption is security and privacy.
There have been efforts to enhance cloud computing security and privacy in diverse aspects such as resilient cloud computing architecture, data encryption and anonymization, zero-trust, cloud network infrastructure, obfuscated cloud data structures, and so on. However, these new technologies sometimes give rise to new risks, or drawbacks, as a trade-off. Issues related to security and privacy architecture are one of the main concerns in today’s era of “cloud computing”. Thus, it is necessary to explore diverse security and privacy issues for secure cloud computing architecture to assure a high security level in our applications, transactions, data processing, and decision management in the cloud.
This Special Issue will focus on (but is not limited to) the following topics:
- security, integrity, and privacy for cloud computing
- secure cloud architecture and services
- data encryption, obfuscation, differential privacy of cloud data
- resilient cloud architecture and service against side-channel attacks
- secure virtualization of cloud computing system
- zero trust architecture in cloud computing
- real-time attack detection in cloud computing

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Electronics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
