# Scope of Special Issue #

The Internet is becoming more and more ubiquitous. One central element of this trend is the existence of a massive network of interconnected wired/wireless physical objects/things/sensors/devices, which can interact in a rich set of manners through a worldwide communication and information infrastructure and provide value added services. The vision of such an Internet of Things (IoT) system, supported by industrial companies and governments globally, has the potential to mark an evolution that will surely have a great impact on our environments and our lives. Yet, the realization of a ubiquitous IoT also poses a number of challenges where security is among the top concerns. The globally interconnected physical objects inevitably result in a potentially enormous attack surface that can be easily exploited if without adequate protection. To enable strong security foundations for the ubiquitous IoT, plenty of factors need to be taken into account. Examples are data security, privacy, access control, information assurance, trust management, secure services interoperability, seamless integration, system heterogeneity, scalability, and mobility. This special issue solicits high-quality original research results about IoT that pertain to state-of-the-art security and privacy issues in various pervasive and ubiquitous scenarios. We encourage submissions on theoretical, practical, as well as experimental studies, from both academia and industry, related to all aspects of security for IoT. Topics of interests include (but are not limited to) the following categories:

- Secure IoT architecture - IoT access control and key management - Identification and privacy for IoT - Smart phone enabled secure smart systems - New cryptographic primitives for IoT - Manage trust for IoT service interoperability - Security on heterogeneous ecosystems - Context-aware security design - Data security and privacy in the IoT - Intrusion detection and defense for IoT - Joint security&privacy aware protocol design - Failure detection, prediction, and recovery - Secure data management within IoT - Trusted computing technology and IoT - Availability, recovery and auditing - IoT related web services security - Secure cyber-physical system - Biometrics for the IoT

# Important Dates #
