The amount of information that is being created, every day, is growing rapidly. As such, it is now more common than ever to deal with extremely large datasets daily. As systems develop and become more intelligent and adaptive, analyzing their behaviour is more challenging as the heterogeneity, volume and speed of data generation is increased. This is further exacerbated with the use of wireless networks, sensors, smartphones and the Internet. Such systems are capable of generating a phenomenal amount of information and the need to analyze their behaviour, to detect security anomalies is becoming harder.
Furthermore, securing such systems is a challenge. As threats evolve, so should security measures develop and adopt increasingly innovative security techniques. The future lies with combating cyber-attacks in an innovative way, where adaptive systems are employed and existing methods are built upon to provide well-structured defence in depth. Despite the clear need to develop effective protection methods, the task is a difficult one, as there are significant weaknesses in the existing security currently in place.
This special issue of the Journal of Computer Sciences and Applications, invites authors to submit papers presenting their research on the area of Big Data Analytics in Intelligent Systems.
