Find below an open call for papers for a special issue on Emerging Techniques for Cryptography.
A special issue of Information (ISSN 2078-2489). This special issue belongs to the section "Information Theory and Methodology".
Introduction:
Cryptography forms the underlying basis for many security solutions in today's computer systems and networks, securing data while it is being stored, transferred, and processed. With the fast-paced development of emerging technologies with new functionalities, emerging techniques for cryptography are also needed in order to secure those new functionalities. As security and privacy problems increase in real-world applications with emerging threats, new and innovative cryptography solutions are needed in order to ensure our computer systems and networks are protected.
This Special Issue will specifically focus on new and innovative cryptography solutions aiming to address emerging threats and existing threats in more efficient manner. The particular topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Foundational theory and mathematics for emerging computer systems and networks
- Provable security of emerging techniques for cryptography
- The proposal and analysis of cryptographic primitives for emerging computer systems and networks
- Cryptanalytic attacks on emerging computer systems and networks
- Cryptographic applications in cloud computing and IoT
