*Special Issue on Big Data Security and Privacy, Digital Communications
Networks (Elsevier)*

(

)



As human beings are deep into the Information Age, we have been witnessing
the rapid development of Big Data. Huge amounts of data from sensors,
individual archives, social networks, Internet of Things, enterprise and
Internet are collected, shared and analyzed. Security and Privacy is one of
the most concerned issues in Big Data. Big Data definitely desires the
security and privacy protection all through the collection, transmission
and analysis procedures.



The features of Big Data such as Veracity, Volume, Variety and dynamicity
bring new challenges to security and privacy protection. To protect the
confidentiality, integrity and availability, traditional security measures
such as cryptography, log/event analysis, intrusion detection/prevention
and access control have taken a new dimension. To protect the privacy, new
pattern of measures such as privacy-preserved data analysis need to be
explored. There is a lot of work to be done in this emerging field.



The purpose of this special issue is to make the security and privacy
communities realizing the challenges and tasks that we face in Big Data. We
focus on exploring the security and privacy aspects of Big Data as
supporting and indispensable elements of the emerging Big Data research.



The areas of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:



- Security technologies for collecting of Big Data

- Cryptography and Big Data

- Intrusion detection and transmission surveillance of Big Data

- Storage and system security for Big Data

- Big Data forensics

- Integrity protection and authentication of Big Data

- Access control of Big Data

- Privacy aware analysis and retrieval of Big Data

- Privacy aware data fusion of Big Data
