Big data is one of the hottest research topics in science and technology
communities, and it possesses a great application potential in every sector
of human society. However, security and privacy, especially theoretical
foundations of them, are critical barriers for extensive applications of
big data. We have seen the vulnerability of the available privacy
preserving data publishing methods against the dramatic development of
mining techniques. We also meet the challenges to apply strict privacy
protection frameworks (e.g., differential privacy) in practice. In terms of
cryptography, we are experiencing the extraordinary efficiency problem
given the volume and scale of big data. Moreover, we have to handle the
existing and emerging attack methods in the big data environment. In
summary, it is time for us to face the challenges. We have to improve or
adjust the existing security and privacy techniques, even invent new tools
and techniques, to accommodate the new problems and challenges in the age
of big data.



The purpose of this special issue is to solicit the latest outputs of
theoretical foundations and mechanisms in big data security and privacy.
Topics of interests include, but are not limited to:

·        Privacy awareness of data mining in big data

·        Threat and Vulnerability Analysis in Big Data
