Special Issue on Symmetry and Asymmetry Applications for Internet of Things Security and Privacy.

Dear Colleagues,

Nowadays, embedded systems have become an essential part of modern life. It is predicted that, in the near future, over 90% of computer applications will be embedded systems, and most of them will be small in size, with very low power consumption and high performance. Embedded systems is the keystone for the realization and deployment of a plethora of Internet of Things (IoT) products and applications for both consumer and industrial markets. In fact, the ability of “things” (along with sensors and actuators) to inter-operate within the existing Internet infrastructure paves the way toward the Internet of Everything (IoE), and gives momentum to modern technologies, including smart grids, smart homes, intelligent transportation, and smart cities.

However, IoT brings along major challenges regarding the security and privacy of the underlying systems and processes. For instance, certain IoT applications can be tightly linked to sensitive infrastructures and strategic services, such as the distribution of water and electricity. The array of challenges include ways to securing constrained objects, authenticate and authorize objects, manage object updates, secure communication, safeguard data privacy and integrity, detect and manage vulnerabilities, incidents, etc. These challenges are expected to worsen due to several reasons pertaining to a) the number of these “things”, which is expected to reach 30 billion objects by 2020, b) the unattended, complex, and often hostile environments in which these objects frequently operate, c) the complexity of the hardware/software IoT platforms and the communication processes involving both human-to-machine and machine-to-machine interactions, and d) the absence of standardization.

The goal of this special issue is to address the aforementioned challenges and foster the dissemination of the latest technologies, solutions, case studies, and prototypes regarding IoT security and privacy. Only high-quality articles describing previously unpublished, original, state-of-the-art research, and not currently under review by a conference or journal will be considered.

* 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 papers will be 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. Symmetry is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 1,200 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.
