Intrusion detection systems

Conventional Cyber security solutions are unable to provide adequate protection to current and emerging highly complex heterogeneous and large-scale computer networks and communications. Pro-active security approach with continuous monitoring and analysis abridges the dormancy between attack and detection. An all-inclusive data collection, analysis, intelligent application as well as situation-aware, self-healing and self-evolving properties will change the cyber security systems into smart cyber security systems. This special issue on “Smart Cyber Security Systems” focuses on an emerging area for the International Journal of Cyber Situational Awareness.
