Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue will present extended versions of selected papers presented at the International Conference Digital Privacy and Security Conference (DPSC). Initiated in 2018, the annual Digital Privacy and Security Conference is a premier space for exchanging information and research results on Digital Privacy and Security and principles along with applications of system technology. The main objectives with regard to security, privacy, hacking, and cyber warfare are as follows: encouraging study, improving practice, and advancing knowledge; providing intended audiences with technological advancements; transferring knowledge; and encouraging applied research. The conference brings together academic and industrial researchers from all areas of Digital Privacy and Security to share their ideas and experiences and learn about the research in contemporary cybersecurity.As its name indicates, the conference is dedicated to Digital Privacy and Security in its entirety. However, for DPSC 2022, we would like to emphasize emerging technologies and applications as it has been used successfully in many applications. Authors of invited papers should be aware that the final submitted manuscript must provide a minimum of 50% new content and not exceed 30% copy/paste from the proceedings paper.
