*Special Issue on*

*Data Security and Privacy Protection in Pervasive Computing Environments*



*Motivation*

The integration of advanced wireless technology and internet tends to
increase connections of computing devices. Because Pervasive Computing (PC)
environments make people get accustomed to computing, they naturally forget
the fact that they are using computers. Furthermore, smart devices around
offer them services such as user location information, user situation, and
user data maintenance/management. In order to achieve these purposes,
various aspects should be integrated from hardware and networks to operating
systems, middleware, user interfaces, and applications.

However, in Pervasive Computing, data security and privacy concerns, such as
personal information outflows, has not been considered in depth. Therefore,
in Pervasive Computing, data security management and diverse security
technologies should be considered.

This special issue solicits state-of-the-art approaches and solutions in the
area of data security and privacy protection in modern Pervasive Computing
environments.
