Editorial: The 10th International Conference on Network and System Security (NSS 2016)

Abstract

While the attack systems have become more easy-to-use, sophisticated, and powerful, interest has greatly increased in the field of building more effective, intelligent, adaptive, active and high performance defense systems which are distributed and networked. The NSS series conferences cover research on all theoretical and practical aspects related to network and system security, such as authentication, access control, availability, integrity, privacy, confidentiality, dependability and sustainability of computer networks and systems. The 10th International Conference on Network and System Security (NSS 2016) was held in Taipei, Taiwan on 28-30 September, 2016. The aim of NSS 2016 is to provide a leading edge forum to foster interaction between researchers and developers with the network and system security communities, and to give attendees an opportunity to interact with experts in academia, industry, and governments. More information about the conference can be found at its website http://nsclab.org/nss2016. The main goal of this special issue is to publish outstanding studies from NSS 2016. After a rigorous peer review process, we selected 3 high-quality papers from NSS 2016.
