Security and Communication Networks
http://www. interscience.wiley.com/security

Advances in wireless communication systems have enabled the
Internet to be even more ubiquitous in terms of network deployment and
management. However, there are many security challenges ahead if
wireless technologies are to gain the trust and confidence of the users.
Thus, this Special Issue aims to address many aspects of wireless
communication security, in an effort to publish and summarize the
current state-of-the-art research works and to provide insights into
future directions and challenges in the field. The topics for this
Special Issue include:

* Wireless network security foundations, including authorization
* Access control, and intrusion detection and prevention
* Wireless network methodologies and protocols, including
agent-based
and mobile code security, and soft computing-based
security
* Wireless e-Commerce and enterprise security
* Database system security and safety
* Cross-layer design and security
* Vehicular ad hoc network security and reliability
* RFID and sensor network security and privacy
* Software security for sensor network nodes
* Wireless intrusion detection, localization and countermeasures
* Cryptographic primitives and operations for wireless networks
* Trust, anonymity and privacy models for wireless networks,
across domain mobility
* Wireless network forensics
* Identity-based authentication for wireless networks
* DDoS / DoS attacks
* Secure routing protocols for wireless sensor networks
* Securing digital content over wireless network
