Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the advent of 5G technology, mobile networks have undergone significant advancements, and the future holds even greater promises with the emergence of 6G. The transition from 5G to 6G is more than a technological evolution, it represents a fundamental rethinking of how mobile networks operate and interact with other cutting-edge technologies, such as Terahertz Communications, Multimodal Network, Non-Terrestrial Network, Holographic Communication and Artificial Intelligence, which presents a multidimensional landscape that demands exploration. However, along with these advancements, new security challenges need to be addressed in order to ensure the integrity, confidentiality, availability, traceability and privacy of mobile networks. This Special Issue provides a platform for researchers and professionals to exchange knowledge and insights on the future challenges and potential solutions in mobile network security for 5G/6G. By addressing these security concerns, we can pave the way for a secure and trustworthy mobile network infrastructure that will support the digital transformation and connectivity needs of the future.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Innovative Network Architectures for 5G/6G Mobile Network Security.
- Formal Theories and Verification Technologies for 5G/6G Mobile Network Security.
- Lightweight Cryptographic Algorithms and Protocols for 5G/6G Mobile Network.
- Artificial Intelligence (AI) Solutions for Security Issues in 5G/6G Mobile Network.
- Open Source Software (OSS) Security Technologies in 5G/6G Mobile Network.
- Internet of Things (IoT) Security Technologies in 5G/6G Mobile Network.
