Advances in Cyber Security and Intelligent Analytics

We live in a digital world, where we use digital tools and smart devices to communicate over the Internet. In turn, an enormous amount of data gets generated. The traditional computing architectures are inefficient in storing and managing this massive amount of data. Unfortunately, the data cannot be ignored as it helps businesses to make better decisions, solve problems, understand performance, improve processes, and understand customers. Therefore, we need modern systems capable of handling and managing data efficiently. In the past few decades, many distributed computing paradigms have emerged, and we have noticed a substantial growth in the applications based on such emerging paradigms. Some well-known emerging computing paradigms include cloud computing, fog computing, and edge computing, which have leveraged the increase in the volume of data being generated every second. However, the distributed computing paradigms face critical challenges, including network management and cyber security. We have witnessed the development of various networking models--IoT, SDN, and ICN--to support modern systems requirements. However, they are undergoing rapid changes and need special attention. The main issue faced by these paradigms is that traditional solutions cannot be directly applied to address the challenges. Therefore, there is a significant need to develop improved network management and cyber security solutions. To this end, this book highlights the challenges faced by emerging paradigms and presents the recent developments made to address the challenges. More specifically, it presents a detailed study on security issues in distributed computing environments and their possible solutions, followed by applications of medical IoT, deep learning, IoV, healthcare, etc.

我們生活在一個數位世界中，在這個世界裡，我們使用數位工具和智慧裝置透過網際網路進行溝通。相對地，大量的數據被產生出來。傳統的計算架構在儲存和管理這麼龐大的數據上效率低下。不幸的是，這些數據不能被忽視，因為它們幫助企業做出更好的決策、解決問題、了解績效、改善流程和了解客戶。因此，我們需要能夠有效處理和管理數據的現代系統。在過去的幾十年裡，許多分散式計算範式已經出現，我們也注意到基於這些新興範式的應用程式有了顯著的增長。一些著名的新興計算範式包括雲端計算、霧計算和邊緣計算，它們利用了每秒產生的數據量的增加。然而，分散式計算範式面臨著重要的挑戰，包括網路管理和網路安全。我們已經見證了各種網路模型的發展，如物聯網、軟體定義網路和資訊中心網路，以支援現代系統的需求。然而，它們正在快速變化中，需要特別關注。這些範式面臨的主要問題是傳統解決方案無法直接應用於解決這些挑戰。因此，有必要開發改進的網路管理和網路安全解決方案。為此，本書突出了新興範式面臨的挑戰，並介紹了應對這些挑戰所做的最新發展。更具體地說，它提供了對分散式計算環境中的安全問題及其可能解決方案的詳細研究，接著介紹了醫療物聯網、深度學習、智慧車輛、醫療保健等的應用。
