During these unprecedented times, many have increasingly relied on the internet for work, shopping, and healthcare. However, while the world focuses on the health and economic threats posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, cyber criminals are capitalizing on this crisis as the world has become more digitally dependent and vulnerable than ever. Cybersecurity Crisis Management and Lessons Learned From the COVID-19 Pandemic provides cutting-edge research on the best guidelines for preventing, detecting, and responding to cyber threats within educational, business, healt...
Global change and advancing technology have transformed the government sector with the use of information and communication technology to improve service delivery. The use of such technologies in electronic and mobile government services raises issues relating to security, privacy, and data protection. Security Frameworks in Contemporary Electronic Government is a pivotal reference source that provides vital research on the application of special security requirements in electronic government transactions. While highlighting topics such as digital environments, public service delivery, and cybercrime, this publication explores the difficulties and challenges faced in implementing e-government technologies, as well as the different aspects of security in e-government. This book is ideally designed for policymakers, software developers, IT specialists, government officials, academicians, researchers, and students seeking current research on secure environments in electronic and mobile government.
This book constitutes selected papers from the 16th European, Mediterranean, and Middle Eastern Conference, EMCIS 2019, held in Dubai, UAE, in October 2019. EMCIS is dedicated to the definition and establishment of Information Systems as a discipline of high impact for the methodical community and IS professionals, focusing on approaches that facilitate the identification of innovative research of significant relevance to the IS discipline. The 48 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 138 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named: Big Data and Analytics; Blockchain Technology and Applications; Cloud Computing; Digital Services and Social Media; e-Government; Enterprise Information Systems; Health-Care Information Systems; Information Systems Security and Information Privacy Protection; Innovative Research Projects; IT Governance; and Management and Organizational Issues in Information Systems.
This book covers the theory, design and applications of computer networks, distributed computing and information systems. Networks of today are going through a rapid evolution, and there are many emerging areas of information networking and their applications. Heterogeneous networking supported by recent technological advances in low-power wireless communications along with silicon integration of various functionalities such as sensing, communications, intelligence and actuations is emerging as a critically important disruptive computer class based on a new platform, networking structure and interface that enable novel, low-cost and high-volume applications. Several of such applications have...
Security and privacy protection within computer networks can be a challenge. By examining the current problems and challenges this domain is facing, more efficient strategies can be established to safeguard personal information against invasive pressures. Security and Privacy in Smart Sensor Networks is a critical scholarly resource that examines recent developments and emerging trends in smart sensor security and privacy by providing new models, practical solutions, and technological advances related to security. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as cloud security, encryption, and intrusion detection systems, this book is geared towards academicians, engineers, IT specialists, researchers, and students seeking current research on authentication and intrusion detection.
Digital evolution, whether through Internet advances or the development of connected objects, has triggered a veritable societal revolution. Thanks to technological advances, e-health services enable healthcare professionals to monitor patients in real time. However, new challenges have also arisen in the field of e-health, concerning the security of medical data, as well as the protection of patient privacy. After presenting e-health architectures and explaining the proliferation of cyber attacks, e-Health Security Management focuses on proposing solutions designed to meet these security imperatives and respect patient privacy, such as the use of blockchain, "biometrics", new encryption methods or artificial intelligence. Implementing these solutions is crucial to guarantee the acceptance and effectiveness of e-health services.
As both a physical living space and emotional environment, cities impact human beings in a number of ways. These ways include but are not limited to the kinds of relationship that may exist among the varying categories of inhabitants of the city, the organization of and accessibility to leaning resources and facilities, the types and rates of migration impacting the city, the security level of the city, and the livelihood networks existing within the city. Learning Cities, Town Planning, and the Creation of Livelihoods is an essential research publication that explores livelihood types and lifelong learning typologies required by cities as well as the relationship between higher education and improved livelihood outcomes. Featuring a broad range of topics such as learning needs, economy, and technologically advanced societies, this book is ideally designed for policymakers, academicians, researchers, students, social workers, educators, politicians, and environmentalists.
The Internet of Vehicles (IoV) is referred to as an efficient and inevitable convergence of the Internet of Things, intelligent transportation systems, edge / fog and cloud computing, and big data, all of which could be intelligently harvested for the cooperative vehicular safety and non-safety applications as well as cooperative mobility management. A secure and low-latency communication is, therefore, indispensable to meet the stringent performance requirements of the safety-critical vehicular applications. Whilst the challenges surrounding low latency are being addressed by the researchers in both academia and industry, it is the security of an IoV network which is of paramount importance...
The Routledge Handbook of Public Administration and Digital Governance is a comprehensive, cutting-edge guide for students, scholars, practitioners of public policy, public administration and digital governance. The book demonstrates the diverse nature of "digital government" through a series of case studies from different regions across the globe, including Africa, the Americas, Asia and Europe. The book uses these cases to highlight various aspects and implications of the intersection of digital technologies and public administration. These include impact of practices and principles of public administration, the effects of particular technologies/tools and the relationship between state an...
Digital innovations are often non-linear, non-incremental, and perhaps at times, disruptive processes that have transformed private as well as public service delivery. The rise of digitization has not only overhauled the governance system and enabled greater government-citizen engagement but has also revolutionized public administration. For public organizations to thrive, it is imperative to understand the challenges and applications that digitization can create for the development, deployment, and management of public service processes. Leveraging Digital Innovation for Governance, Public Administration, and Citizen Services: Emerging Research and Opportunities is a comprehensive research ...
