Particularly, there is a need for novel schemes of secure authentication, integrity protection, encryption, and non-repudiation to protect the privacy of sensitive data and to secure systems. Lightweight symmetric key cryptography and adaptive network security algorithms are in demand for mitigating these challenges. This book presents state-of-the-art research in the fields of cryptography and security in computing and communications. It covers a wide range of topics such as machine learning, intrusion detection, steganography, multi-factor authentication, and more. It is a valuable reference for researchers, engineers, practitioners, and graduate and doctoral students working in the fields of cryptography, network security, IoT, and machine learning.
